Research direction
Start by running the reported wingetcreate update and new commands with the two talosctl Windows URLs to reproduce the failures. Trace the update/new command paths involved in package identifiers and architecture handling. Done means the manifest is updated with the additional architecture instead of either command failing with the reported errors.
