Betreff: dont use C:\Windows as working directory when installed using microsoft store

Hi,

ive installed python with IDLE using the microsoft store, but one big issue with it:

whenever i try to save a new file it prompts me to put it in C:\Windows\ which is not a good idea, %userprofile% or %userprofile%\Documents\ would be more appropriate. Normally i just change the value of "start in" on the .lnk in the start menu but in case of an app this is not possible

so please fix that

Thanks a lot in advance and keep up the good work

TN
