    On Windows it's best to use pip via the Python Launcher:

    py -m pip show playsound

    Python's app distribution on the Microsoft Store doesn't include the
    py launcher, and we don't (but should) have a standalone app or
    desktop version of the launcher. Unlike the desktop distribution,
    however, the app distribution installs a versioned name as a link,
    such as "python3.11". (Note that a venv virtual environment only has a
    "python" command on Windows.)

    If "pip" is in PATH, a versioned name such as "pip3.11" should also be available. If multiple versions of the app distribution are installed,
    and for some reason the "python" and "pip" links are mapped to
    different versions, one can match up the versioned names "pip3.11" and "python3.11" to ensure consistency. Or simply run "python -m pip".
