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
Installer hash mismatch.
### Brief description of your issue
WinGet downloaded the Chrome installer successfully, but the installer's hash did not match the hash defined in the package manifest. As a result, WinGet blocked the installation for security reasons. This cannot be bypassed simply by running the command as Administrator.
Downloaded installer SHA256:
F3B164BA3D3AB9A76B6E93ABAE3DD89E042FE36655CB58C45504992925A87FE4
Installer URL:
https://dl.google.com/dl/chrome/install/googlechromestandaloneenterprise64.msi
this is the correct has = SHA256 F3B164BA3D3AB9A76B6E93ABAE3DD89E042FE36655CB58C45504992925A87FE4
### Steps to reproduce
C:\Windows\System32>winget install -e --id Google.Chrome
Encontrado Google Chrome [Google.Chrome] Versión 151.0.7922.174

██████████████████████████████ 158 MB / 158 MB
El hash del instalador no coincide; esto no se puede sobreescribir al ejecutarse como administrador
### Actual behavior
WinGet downloads the installer successfully (158 MB), but the installation fails with:
"Installer hash does not match; this package cannot be overridden when running as administrator."
The installer appears to have been updated on Google's side, causing a mismatch between the downloaded file hash and the hash stored in the WinGet manifest.
### Expected behavior
WinGet should successfully install Google Chrome using the package manifest published in the winget-pkgs repository. The installer hash in the manifest should match the SHA256 hash of the installer currently being downloaded from Google's official URL.
