We want to protect user data while it is on disk. We have ongoing to do this on macOS https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1932976 and it seems like something similar should be possible - or maybe even automatic on Windows.

The storage is described here https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/apps/design/app-settings/store-and-retrieve-app-data but it is neither clear on how this data is protected.
