Is this expected behavior? The `python-3.14.0a7-amd64.exe` installer worked fine. I thought it could be related to pep-0773, but that only deprecates the \"full installer\" which should still work as it has (until removed in 3.16).\n\nInstall command used:\n```powershell\nStart-Process python-3.14.0b1-amd64.exe -Wait -NoNewWindow -PassThru \\\n\t-ArgumentList @( \\\n\t\t'/quiet', \\\n\t\t'InstallAllUsers=1', \\\n\t\t'TargetDir=C:\\Python', \\\n\t\t'PrependPath=1', \\\n\t\t'Shortcuts=0', \\\n\t\t'Include_doc=0', \\\n\t\t'Include_pip=1', \\\n\t\t'Include_test=0' \\\n\t)\n```\nThen trying to run `python` and `pip`:\n```console\n$ # the installer updated PATH in the registry, refresh our local value\n$ $env:PATH = [Environment]::GetEnvironmentVariable('PATH', [EnvironmentVariableTarget]::Machine);\n$ python --version\nPython 3.14.0b1\n$ pip --version\npip : The term 'pip' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program.
