Can't upgrade a package whose newest version number is shorter than the installed number
Something like
C:\Windows\System32>winget upgrade Name ID Version Verfügbar Quelle
Advanced SystemCare IObit.AdvancedSystemCare 17.2.0 17.2.0.191 winget Driver Booster 11 IObit.DriverBooster 11.2.0 11.2.0.46 winget
can not be updated. In most common case, the newest version is installed. But winget believe, 17.2.0 is newer than 17.2.0.191!
How to solve it? What is the solution?
Thanks!
Can you share the output from winget list showing the installed version and the suggested version?
It looks like one of our moderators added PRs for the versions mentioned.
It looks like the output from winget upgrade is showing the newer versions available in the "Available" column.

How to share this 'winget list'? Maybe like an attached file? Here we are...
That's from WinGet UI which is a different project.

OK, it looks like newer versions are being offered. Are the upgrades failing?

Not really! But it will be reinstalled by every run! Like as a never ending loop! Look at
Advanced SystemCare IObit.AdvancedSystemCare 17.2.0 17.2.0.191 winget Driver Booster 11 IObit.DriverBooster 11.2.0 11.2.0.46 winget
17.2.0 is lesser than 17.2.0.191! But the new number 17.2.0.191 is not stored as "17.2.0.191". It is still installed as "17.2.0"!
See the attached files.

I'm guessing the installer isn't updating the version in the registry after the upgrade. WinGet is looking at registry data to determine the version. What is displayed in Windows Apps & Features after installing the latest version?

@denelon - this is an issue with the manifests. The manifests were submitted with an incorrect PackageVersion which is higher than the version the application writes to registry. The two linked PRs should close this issue

@Stuntman58 I'm not sure if it's a bug in GitHub or if you are following something on GitHub leading to the e-mail notifications.
