When installing 3.8.0b3 64-bit into Win 10 using the gui following the `customize installation` path, there are duplicate and inconsistent options on three different screens for the `install for all users` checkbox.

Observed Behavior:
1. first screen (Install Python) - `install launcher for all users` is marked as checked as default
2. second screen (Optional Features) - 
2.1 `for all users` is also marked as checked if first screen marked.  if second screen marked - this is unchecked.
2.2 layout of this checkbox is above a comment that relates only to the "py launcher" checkbox.  would be more clear for user if `for all users` was located below "py launcher", or removed from this screen (per note below)
3. third screen (Advanced Options) - `Install for all users` is UNchecked in all cases, even if first & second screens are checked.

Expected Behavior:
1. if first screen is checked, all follow on screens are also checked
2. feature options only appear on one screen, or at a minimum, checkbox label is exactly the same on all screens

Additional Questions for the team:
1. Should all install customizations be removed from first screen, set as default options and just listed as descriptions under the `Install Now` default?
2. Should `for all users` option be removed from the 2nd screen (Optional Features)?  It seems more like an "advanced option" than a feature.
