Installation issue.
Brief description of your issue
Trying to silent upgrade the program to 4.10.4 causes the update to abruptly restart the machine, instead of completing the remaining updates from running upgrade all

SonicWALL.GlobalVPNClientis installed. - Run
winget upgrade -hrand accept any source or package agreements - Approve any admin prompts that show up for installs.
Actual behavior
When it gets it finishes the upgrade for SonicWALL.GlobalVPNClient, it instantly restarts the machine.

Should update SonicWALL.GlobalVPNClient, not restart the machine, and continue with the rest of the updates, and maybe include a warning that a restart is required to finish.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the upgrade with winget upgrade -hr on the stated Windows and WinGet versions, then inspect the attached WinGet log for the SonicWALL.GlobalVPNClient installer result. Determine whether the package manifest or installer behavior causes the restart; done means the upgrade no longer unexpectedly restarts the machine and the remaining upgrades can proceed, or the issue is documented as requiring a restart.
