Why Python From Windows Store is Flawed

Installing Python from the Windows Store is flawed as everything goes into AppData\Local.  This is a local directory associated with the logged in user C:\Users\<Name>\AppData\Local.

This is a way to sidestep a "proper installation" in C:\Program Files which requires administrator privileges. It's a way to overcome potential UAC restrictions.

Once installed - there is no proper way to uninstall. You need to get into the AppData directory (which is hidden in File Explorer). Once opened, you can navigate to Microsoft\WindowsStore to find python and related exe files (e.g. pip.exe).  Then do a clean of the registry.

You may also find Python subdirectories in the WindowsStore directory.

While cleaning out registry entries you may come across references to .whl files (or Python Wheels).
