[issue46638] Inconsistent registry use in Windows Store package

[Steve Dower]

Steve Dower  added the comment:

Okay, so it doesn't install at all on 1803. However, that's out of support [1], 
so I guess it doesn't matter.

In theory, 1809 should be the first one that supports it. I'll try that, but I 
think we're okay to leave this turned on for 3.11.

The changes for 3.9-3.10 will be to disable the option unconditionally.

[issue46638] Inconsistent registry use in Windows Store package

[Steve Dower]

New submission from Steve Dower :

The build of the Store package detects whether the build PC supports disabling 
registry virtualisation or not when deciding whether to add it to the manifest. 
Because our release builds just moved from the windows-2019 image to the 
windows-2022 image, this setting changed and now builds have virtualisation 
disabled.

While this is probably desirable for some users, having it happen without  
warning is bad.

I'll check whether we can leave it unconditionally enabled for 3.11 and still 
install on older Windows versions. If it won't install, we'll just have to 
leave it disabled.
