Description

### Description

It would be nice to offer a user setup (like for vscode), installing in user local AppData.
In business context, developer often don't have admin right on PC. This kind of setup can simplify installation and updates.
In many company, computer are personal. There is no need tools be usable by other users.

Start by locating the existing installer and update packaging, then determine how a user-local AppData installation can be offered without administrator privileges; done means installation and updates work for a single user on a restricted Windows PC.
