Research direction
Start by reproducing the upgrade with an older Conda, Miniconda, Miniforge, or Mambaforge installation using winget upgrade --all or winget upgrade <package>. Determine which package manifests and upgrade behavior are involved; the issue is done only when an agreed approach prevents environment deletion or clearly handles the warning, update, or backup behavior.
