Describe your issue

The list of installed packages is very short & doesn't contain applications installed earlier today. As an example, I installed Tabby & Alacritty with WingetUI today. Gave both of them a good try. Decided to stay with Alacritty. Had to reboot for unrelated reasons. After the reboot neither application appears in the list of installed applications, even though they're both still installed.

Refreshing the list doesn't help.

Additionally the debug log contains a massive amount of exceptions relating to parsing package names/descriptions.

Steps to reproduce the issue

Look at the list of installed packages & the debug log. For the nothing has to be done in order to reproduce it.
