[issue35688] "pip install --user numpy" fails on Python from the Windows Store

[Steve Dower]

Steve Dower <steve.dower at python.org> added the comment:

I posted on the numpy thread: Most likely the DLL is failing to load, which the importer returns as "not found" (as it falls back on other search mechanisms and doesn't retain the error). I suggested loading it directly with ctypes to see if there's a better error indicator.
