What would I have to change if packages aren't recognized?

[CanePlayz]

I have some packages installed which are also available from winget, but aren't picked up by it. winget list for those packages yields

Name                                          ID                                                   Version          Source
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MyHeritage Family Tree Builder                Family Tree Builder                                  8.0.0.8636
Google Play Spiele (Beta)                     GooglePlayGames                                      23.9.1265.3
ROCCAT SWARM                                  InstallShield_{6FB8005D-F942-4BFB-AD75-5DA08E5454D9} 1.94.330

At least that's what I'm assuming because it doesn't change the ID to the winget one (which it does for all the ones with winget under Source).

What would I have to change in the manifest to make that work? Unfortunately, I don't know at all how the matching of local packages to winget manifests is handled by winget.

WinGet compares metadata in the registry against manifests in configured source(s).

Several factors go into what constitutes a valid "match".

It could be productCode / upgradeCode or any of the other values under "AppsAndFeatures" entries.
