Wrong scope detected for Gluon.SceneBuilder #5414
Description
Brief description of your issue
winget incorrectly says the currently installed package is installed with machine scope, blocking upgrades
Steps to reproduce
- install Scene Builder 23.0.1 manually by downloading and running the MSI (use the default install location of
C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\SceneBuilder) - run
winget upgrade --exact --id Gluon.SceneBuilder
Expected behavior
Scene Builder is upgraded to version 24.0.0
Actual behavior
winget output:
No applicable upgrade found.
A newer package version is available in a configured source, but it does not apply to your system or requirements.
from the logs:
2025-04-29 17:07:37.984 [CLI ] Installer [X64,wix,User,en-US] not applicable: Installer scope does not match currently installed scope: User != Machine
The installer manifest has user scope and the current installation scope is user, so this does not make sense.
