Comment on PowerShell MSI Package Deprecation

Comments

Looks like Microsoft is trying to stop internal products from using MSI in favour of MSIX packages. MSIX is nice for interactive applications but has a few issues with dealing with system wide installations and automation scenarios that I doubt the PowerShell team will be able to solve by the time of the 7.7 release.
