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

Multiple installed packages found.

### Brief description of your issue

Duplicate installs, 2 executables, 2 entries in cpl.
Could be related to -
- #409361

**Package 1**
"C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\AFFiNE"

**Package 2**
"C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\Programs\AFFiNE"

I think one possibility could be using the internal update within the software is registering it as separate install and maybe winget updates the older one later but it is just a guess.

### Steps to reproduce

Not sure. Maybe installing the older version updating it from inside the software then using winget upgrade

### Actual behavior

2 installs and uninstaller. One with github links, so probably the winget install.

### Expected behavior

1 install

Research direction

Start by inspecting the ToEverything.AFFiNE package manifests in winget-pkgs and the related issue #409361. Reproduce the reported sequence of installing an older version, updating within AFFiNE, and running winget upgrade. Done means determining whether the manifests or update flow causes duplicate installs and identifying the evidence needed for one registered installation.
