Start with the supplied terminal output and installer log, then inspect the Piriform.Recuva package metadata in winget-pkgs and reproduce the upgrade using the stated WinGet version. Done means identifying a reproducible cause and a package change or confirmed upstream issue that prevents the upgrade from hanging.
