[issue36529] Python from WindowsStore: can't install package using "-m pip"

[Ilya Kazakevich]

New submission from Ilya Kazakevich :

No packages could be installed with "-m pip" because of "Access Denied". It 
seems that it tries to install package to "site-packages' instead of 
"local-packages". However, "pip.exe" works. Does it mean "pip.exe" is patched 
somehow, but not python itself? 



c:\>"c:\Program 
Files\WindowsApps\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.7_3.7.1008.0_x64__qbz5n2kfra8p0\python"
 -m pip install flask

Consider using the `--user` option or check the permissions.




But:

  The script flask.exe is installed in 
'C:\Users\SomeUser\AppData\Local\Packages\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.7_qbz5n2kfra8p0\LocalCache\local-packages\Python37\Scripts'
 which is not on PATH.
  Consider adding this directory to PATH or, if you prefer to suppress this 
warning, use --no-warn-script-location.
Successfully installed flask-1.0.2

[issue30078] "-m unittest --help" says nothing about direct script exection

[Ilya Kazakevich]

New submission from Ilya Kazakevich:

In Py3 it is possible to run test filelike 
"python -m unittest tests/test_something.py" (it is *not* possible in Py2!)
Here is doc: https://docs.python.org/3/library/unittest.html

But "--help" seems to be simply copied from Py2 because it does not have 
information nor examples about such execution. 

Please add it to "examples" section at least because this type of usage is very 
useful.
