Description
Please confirm these before moving forward
- I have searched for my issue and not found a work-in-progress/duplicate/resolved issue.
- I have not been informed if the issue is resolved in a preview version of the winget client.
Category of the issue
Installation issue.
Brief description of your issue
When I run Winget from a Command Prompt I get this window:
The update completes, showing both modules have been updated.
If, however, I run the update a second time, the SAME 2 products are shown as requiring updating again.
Steps to reproduce
See description above.
Actual behavior
The same two products are repeatedly asking to be updated.
Expected behavior
IMO, once the update has been run successfully the FIRST time, a second update should NOT ask for those same two products to be updated again.
Environment
C:\>winget -v
v1.9.1792-preview
My environment: Windows 11 Professional 64-bit
Version: 23H2 OS Build 22631.3880

Research direction
Start by reproducing the repeated upgrade with winget v1.9.1792-preview on Windows 11 23H2, recording the two product names and command output from both runs. Then inspect the corresponding package manifests in this repository and compare their versions; done means the second run no longer reports the same products, with focused reproduction or manifest evidence.
