• deleted npm claude cli version from path
• added claude cli native to path
  After that the terminal restart was performed and teh bug was spotted

System:
Windows 11

Before the creating ticket searched the existing tickets and multiple terminal war performed (bug still remains)

Yes, the latest npm version is ahead, it recommended I switch to native ( so I did ), which actually downgraded me back to 2.1.14, which is the latest on winget.

Now it prompts me to update via winget, but running winget:

> winget upgrade Anthropic.ClaudeCode
No available upgrade found.
No newer package versions are available from the configured sources.

> Get-Command claude

winget upgrade Anthropic.ClaudeCode
No available upgrade found.
No newer package versions are available from the configured sources.

When I try to execute Claude from the directory directly, it just closes without any errors with the WinGet version.

I, too, am having this issue. I was trying all different kinds of ways to upgrade it but nothing worked and then I saw this issue.
