### Before submitting the issue
- [x] I have verified whether the issue reproduces in Mechanical directly (paste your script into the Mechanical scripting window or run it in batch mode via `ansys-mechanical -i test.py`). If it reproduces there, the issue is likely in Mechanical rather than PyMechanical.

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the SEH exception when initializing the embedded App with Windows Store Python 3.14. Then inspect the App initialization path and the existing conditions for the Windows Store workaround mentioned in the report; done means initialization no longer raises the exception and the conditions cover the reported Python path.
