Winget Log file shows that a package has been successfully installed. In the next line, the installation is marked as failed and a new installation of the package (instead of the update) is attempted. Here are three examples. The issue occurs with packages of all kind but not with all packages. Three examples attached. Actually, the update has been finished successfully.

Steps to reproduce

Winget upgrade --id KeePassXCTeam.KeePassXC --accept-package-agreements --accept-source-agreements -h Winget upgrade --id TeamViewer.TeamViewer --accept-package-agreements --accept-source-agreements -h Winget upgrade --id Microsoft.EdgeWebView2Runtime --accept-package-agreements --accept-source-agreements -h

Expected behavior

Upgrade finshed successfully.

Actual behavior

Upgrade fails and Winget tries to upgrade packages at every run.

#1075

I'm not sure that it's the same situation - that appears to be the "upgrade always available" situation, while this is a successful install that's reported as a failure.

I've seen and approved several of these, probably all 3 reported here. I haven't been sure what to do, when the application is working, but the package manager reports a failure, without giving a clear indication of what failed.

• I don't want to block a functional application install.
• I don't know if it's an application issue or a CLI issue, so don't want to (mis-)report until I have more data.
• Data collection is complicated by the low frequency.

I'm not sure if this is an issue with WinGet. I'm suspicious these installers might not be correctly reporting the information to the registry for Apps and Features version, or something might be running which interferes. If I could get a solid reproduction process, it would be easier to verify.
