Brief description of your issue

winget updates shows me SomePythonThings.WingetUIStore.Pre-release even if I installed SomePythonThings.WingetUIStore
(so I get an unwanted beta instead of the installed stable)

Steps to reproduce

Install SomePythonThings.WingetUIStoreand try winget updates

Actual behavior

beta is suggested

Expected behavior

as there is a Pre-Release "channel" only such users should get beta-Updates

Environment
Windows: Windows.Desktop v10.0.19044.4780
Systemarchitektur: X64
Paket: Microsoft.DesktopAppInstaller v1.23.1911.0
