pipenv can't create when python in a readonly folder

I use the Python from MS Store. And when i used ‘pipenv install’, have error Failed creating virtual environment [pipenv.exceptions.VirtualenvCreationException]: File "C:\Users\***\AppData\Local\Packages\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.7_qbz5n2kfra8p0\LocalCache\local-packages\Python37\site-packages\pipenv\cli\command.py", line 254, in install [pipenv.exceptions.VirtualenvCreationException]: editable_packages=state.installstate.editables, [pipenv.exceptions.VirtualenvCreationException]: File "C:\Users\***\AppData\Local\Packages\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.7_qbz5n2kfra8p0\LocalCache\local-packages\Python37\site-packages\pipenv\core.py", line 1741, in do_install [pipenv.exceptions.VirtualenvCreationException]: pypi_mirror=pypi_mirror, [pipenv.exceptions.VirtualenvCreationException]: File "C:\Users\***\AppData\Local\Packages\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.7_qbz5n2kfra8p0\LocalCache\local-packages\Python37\site-packages\pipenv\core.py", line 574, in ensure_project [pipenv.exceptions.VirtualenvCreationException]: pypi_mirror=pypi_mirror, [pipenv.exceptions.VirtualenvCreationException]: File "C:\Users\***\AppData\Local\Packages\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.7_qbz5n2kfra8p0\LocalCache\local-packages\Python37\site-packages\pipenv\core.py", line 506, in ensure_virtualenv [pipenv.exceptions.VirtualenvCreationException]: python=python, site_packages=site_packages, pypi_mirror=pypi_mirror [pipenv.exceptions.VirtualenvCreationException]: File "C:\Users\***\AppData\Local\Packages\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.7_qbz5n2kfra8p0\LocalCache\local-packages\Python37\site-packages\pipenv\core.py", line 935, in do_create_virtualenv [pipenv.exceptions.VirtualenvCreationException]: extra=[crayons.blue("{0}".format(c.err)),] [pipenv.exceptions.VirtualenvCreationException]: Failed to create virtual environment.

Then I use ‘python -m venv .venv’ create a new venv, and active this. command ‘pipenv install’ work well. Should pipenv can run if python in a readonly folder? and how could I fix it.
