symlinks do not work for me, this may be another bug (should I create a new issue?):

    python -m venv --without-pip --symlinks venv

Unable to symlink 'C:\\Users\\****\\AppData\\Local\\Microsoft\\WindowsApps\\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.10_qbz5n2kfra8p0\\idle.exe' to 'C:\\****\venv\\Scripts\\idle.exe'
Error: [Errno 22] Invalid argument: 'C:\\Users\\****\\AppData\\Local\\Microsoft\\WindowsApps\\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.10_qbz5n2kfra8p0\\idle.exe'
