Unable to install Juliaup on my laptop because the Microsoft Store is disabled by my organization. I believe this is preventing installation via the Store. I have already installed Julia 1.11.6 using the Windows 64‑bit `.exe` installer, but I’d like to switch to Juliaup for easier version management. I also tried the experimental App Installer (`.msix`) alternative, but it did not work in my environment. Is there an alternative standalone setup (`.exe`, `.msix`, or `.msi`) that I can provide to my IT admin for installation?

Please uninstall this one.

Juliaup is a requirement for installing Pumas, so please work with you IT to either temporarily enable MS Store or the msix installer.
