MSI is a Microsoft Installer program, that installs pre-compiled modules
since it is an executable, you just double-click and wait for it to finish. A wheel is installed using pip from the command line, and is sometimes better as it may install dependencies (if missing) as well you must change the current directory to the one containing the wheel before running pip with a command like pip install wheel_nameI usually try pip first, I don't know why I just do. (Sounds like a song)
