Bug: Version in winget reported as Unknown #190

Description
Despite being installed via the latest release winget fails to report the correct version when looking to update the package.
Uninstalling and reinstalling the software did not resolve the issue, regardless of how the app was installed.

Information

  • OS: Windows 11 25H2 x64
  • Winget: latest version.
  • NS-USBLoader: v7.3

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install the latest version of NS-USBLoader (manually or via winget install --id developersu.ns-usbloader).
  2. Open PowerShell and check for updates using the winget update --include-unknown command (otherwise it won't display, but will still report as unknown if you wish to update the program).
  3. Note that the version field displays Unknown instead of a valid version, which tricks winget into thinking there is an update.

Expected behavior
winget update command should correctly report the installed version if an update is available.
