Update the command has been deprecated, the current working command is:
"winget install --id=Python.Python.3.10 -e"

Yeah the commands on Windows tend to change. I maintain the following installation guide for my students:

pwsacademy/swift-setup/blob/main/platforms/windows/README.md

# Windows 10 / 11

The following instructions will help you get started with Swift on Windows.

## Prerequisites

Before you install Swift, first enable **developer mode**. This is required for the Swift Package Manager to work properly.

On Windows 10, open the **Start** menu and navigate to **Settings ▸ Update & Security ▸ For developers**. Here, you can enable developer mode:

On Windows 11, you can find this setting under **Settings ▸ Privacy & security ▸ For developers**:

Next, install or update **App Installer** from the Microsoft Store:

winget install -e --id Python.Python.<version> is the correct command. You can see the available versions with winget search --id Python.Python. For more information, see for example here.
