I'm having the same problem. I have a package installed that I've updated many times in the past with WinGet. Now winget upgrade is showing that there is an update, but it can't find it when running the winget upgrade <package id> command. I've had no issues with this in the past, so it seems to be a regression introduced in a recent winget version.

This is still an issue for me with both the Gyan.FFmpeg and yt-dlp.FFmpeg.
