Research direction

Start by reviewing the Windows interpreter-core startup path and dependency bpo-27417, which concerns calling CoInitializeEx on startup. No implementation files or tests are identified, so the scope and completion criteria for using the Microsoft Antimalware Scan Interface would need to be established first.
