Research direction
Start by reproducing the uninstall failure with PowerToys 0.87.1 installed through GitHub, focusing on the message that the version 0.86 MSI is missing. The issue is resolved when the application can be uninstalled without requiring that missing MSI; obtaining the Bug Report ZIP would help identify the relevant installer path.
