Research direction

Start by reproducing `dotnetup sdk uninstall latest` while the SDK is in use, then compare `dotnetup list` with `dotnet --list-sdks` in a new PowerShell terminal. Trace the dotnetup uninstall entry point and determine the intended behavior from the title and conflicting expected-result text; done means the in-use SDK is handled consistently without leaving the two listings or subsequent `dotnet new` command in a broken state.
