winget does not updating app version info

[demios97]

Brief description of your issue

winget doesn't see actual version of the program after upgrade of the program through winget itself. Reinstalling doesn't help.

Steps to reproduce

winget install AIMP.AIMP
winget upgrade --all

Expected behavior

After upgrade winget should show me actual version number.

Actual behavior

Every time I try to upgrade, aimp install himself, no matter the version.

What is shown when you run winget list AIMP ?

[Trenly]

As I was looking into this, in additon to the bug above, I found that this application installs side by side.

Setting UpgradeBehavior: uninstallPrevious is not an option, as the application uninstaller returns success immediately and is interactive, thus requiring #1885 to provide custom silent uninstall arguments.

Thank you; This looks exactly like the issue I reported in the issue linked above, which means you don’t have the other side-by-side upgrade issue

winget update #Refreshes the repositories
winget upgrade #Actually updates apps
is it true ? Why does "winget update" works if we don't have any mention at "winget -?" ?

winget upgrade

Why does PostgreSQL.pgAdmin still shows as not updated ?

[denelon]

WinGet 1.8 has better support for packages that get installed "side-by-side".
Is this a situation where multiple versions are installed?

If it's not, it's possibly a case of the registry entry not getting updated by the installer.

[demios97]

There were no multiple versions of the same app. But the issue was gone long ago. Maybe @emoxam can provide recent feedback?

[denelon]

I'm going to go ahead and close this issue. If the problem persists, please re-open this issue or file a new one. I'm fairly confident the issue has been resolved in WinGet 1.8.
