Research direction

Start by reviewing the issue discussion and the Python Install Manager's existing Windows installation documentation; no specific files or tests are named in the payload. Compare the proposed MSIX installation approaches for all users, then document the agreed reliable procedure once the discussion reaches a decision.

Description

question

There's a lack of clear information online about how best to install an MSIX for all users of a machine, and a number of approaches that seem to half work.

This issue is to attract discussion until we can figure out the best ways and document them.
