Description
### Please confirm these before moving forward
- [x] I have searched for my issue and not found a work-in-progress/duplicate/resolved issue.
- [x] 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
Looks like the installer does not support machine scope install.
Installing as system without machine scope does install it, but looks like only for system user.
### Steps to reproduce
.\winget.exe install -e --id Autodesk.NavisworksFreedom.2026 --scope machine --accept-package-agreements --accept-source-agreements
**No applicable installer found; see logs for more details.**
When installing without "--scope machine" switch, it does install:
.\winget.exe install -e --id Autodesk.NavisworksFreedom.2026 --accept-package-agreements --accept-source-agreements
Found Autodesk Create Installer [Autodesk.NavisworksFreedom.2026] Version 2026

but checking it, will still not find the app:
.\winget.exe list -e --id Autodesk.NavisworksFreedom.2026
No installed package found matching input criteria.
### Actual behavior
Does install under "C:\Program Files\Autodesk\AdskIdentityManager\1.14.0.3", but not detected after install when installing as system user and without machine scope.
Winget version is 2026, but when checking the app under Control Panel I see two components, non of them matching 2026. Adding a screenshot below.
### Expected behavior
I expect it should be working under system user and install for machine scope, as regular user has not admin rights and can't elevate to install the application:
.\winget.exe install -e --id Autodesk.NavisworksFreedom.2026 --scope machine --accept-package-agreements --accept-source-agreements
