UniGetUI Version
2026.1.8
Windows version, edition, and architecture
Windows 11 10.0.26100 Build 26100
Describe your issue
Trying to update a portable app package using a custom path (such as C:/Software/Whatever) through Uniget + Winget succeeds, but in actuality simply deletes the package from my computer. To update to a new version successfully, I have to manually reinstall the package from the Discover Packages tab.
Steps to reproduce the issue
- Install a portable app using a custom path, such as C:/Software/Whatever
- When a new version of that portable app is available, update it.
- The app and its folder will vanish from your custom path. UniGet thinks the app was successfully updated.

Describe your issue
Trying to update a portable app package using a custom path (such as C:/Software/Whatever) through Uniget + Winget succeeds, but in actuality simply deletes the package from my computer. To update to a new version successfully, I have to manually reinstall the package from the Discover Packages tab.
Steps to reproduce the issue
