I'm not sure that this is the best way to reach the people who are
responsible for Python on the Microsoft Store. If someone knows a
better way to reach them, please let me know.
A couple of days ago over at the python-help mailing list we received
an email saying:
Hi. I installed Python 3.13 on my laptop that has Windows on ARM.
The version from the Microsoft store says AMD64 when you type
python into Powershell. Obviously, I expected the native ARM
version to be installed. There are no options to install an ARM
version on the MS store.
Afterwards, I uninstalled it and used the native ARM installer
from your website. I just wanted to mention this (x64 versions
being installed on aarch64 machines) in case you were not aware
of it happening.
And I said that I would do my best to get that information into the
right hands.
Regards,
Matt
