Hello,
while following the instructions for the installation of this repository, I get the following error:

''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

python3.10 setup.py install
error: can't create or remove files in install directory

The following error occurred while trying to add or remove files in the installation directory:
[Error 13] Permission denied: 'C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.10_3.10.1776.0_x64.....\Lib\site-packages\test-easy-install-20548.write.test'

The installation directory you specified was
C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.10_3.10.1776.0_x64.....\Lib\site-packages\

Perhaps your account does not have write access to this directory? If the installation directory is a system-owned directory, you may need to sign in as the administrator or "root" account. If you do not have administrative access to this machine, you may wish to choose a different installation directory, preferably one that is listed in your PYTHONPATH environment variable.

For information on other options, you may wish to consult the documentation at:
https://setuptools/pypa.io/en/latest/deprected/easy_install.html

Please make the appropriate changes for your system and try again.
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

Running the setup.py file as the administrator changed nothing, so should I be giving myself write permission to the \Lib\site-packages? As far as I'm aware, doing so is considered a security risk? Are there other ways in which I can install msvlm? Thanks in advance

Kr, VoeP
