"No installed package found matching input criteria." when trying to update 7zip

[PCAssistSoftware]

Brief description of your issue

Getting this error when trying to update 7-zip.

"No installed package found matching input criteria."

I can only update by supplying the full name of the app in quotes rather than the Id e.g. winget update "7-Zip 21.07 (x64)" rather than winget upgrade --id 7zip.7zip

CLI output for reference:

winget upgrade --id 7zip.7zip
No installed package found matching input criteria.

winget update "7-Zip 21.07 (x64)"
Found 7-Zip [7zip.7zip] Version 23.01

Can you post the output of winget list 7-zip

Is this the same issue #2129, caused by there being more than one version of 7-Zip installed?

We've added experimental support for better Side-by-Side behavior in WinGet 1.8-preview releases.

Please try the experimental feature.
You can see which features are enabled with winget features
You can enable settings with winget settings (this opens the .json file in your default editor)
winget settings -? provides URLs pointing to documentation on our features.

I confirm the issue (as described in #4540) goes away after:

• uninstalling 7-zip 24.06 using MsiExec.exe '/X{23170F69-40C1-2702-2406-000001000000}'
• uninstalling 7-zip 24.05 using MsiExec.exe '/X{23170F69-40C1-2702-2405-000001000000}'
• installing the latest 7-zip using winget install 7zip

I have no clue as to how two different versions could have been registered on the same machine, given that the installation path is the same... but that's another story

We now have better support for side-by-side installation. You should be able to uninstall individual versions of packages, and the upgrade flow should work as well using WinGet 1.8.
