Research direction
Review this feature request alongside the issue it was split from, #711, and investigate how WinGet and the Windows Update service (wuauserv) relate to the “other applications” update path. Done should mean that WinGet updates participate in Windows Update with operating-system updates ordered for compatible versions.
