Just installed windows on the virtual machine, default iso, no tweaks yet applied, having the same error

fixed: looks like winutil wasn't able to install winget, the button reinstall winget did nothing. fixed by installing winget manually

There are 2 options. I can only do it with GitHub method, but when I run the downloaded bundle it throws error: "Package failed updates, dependency or conflict validation.". Have you experienced it?

oh yes))) I've spent ~4 hours trying to resolve it. this two commands from chat-gpt worked for me:

Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://github.com/microsoft/winget-cli/releases/latest/download/Microsoft.DesktopAppInstaller_8wekyb3d8bbwe.msixbundle" -OutFile "$env:TEMP\winget_installer.msixbundle"

Add-AppxPackage -Path "$env:TEMP\winget_installer.msixbundle" -ForceApplicationShutdown

The second command was giving me an error, which i resolved by installing Microsoft.UI.Xaml.2.7, i found an article with good instruction on how to do it: What is Microsoft.UI.Xaml.2.7 and How to Install it

Same situation here but I needed Micorosoft.UI.Xaml.2.8 per the errors I was getting.

I found the download at https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.UI.Xaml/ and used the instructions above, changing the details from "2.7.x" to "2.8" accordingly to install via powershell command line and then it worked for me.

New install of Windows 10 64 bit using Rufus 3.20.1929 (portable) choosing to customize (Skip privacy questions, set local account the same name as this users and set regiaol options using same as this users).

I've also used Rufus with the same options checked. It could be the reason why we have this problem.

I had the same issue, but this did not work for me.

Following step 5 on this guide fixed it. https://www.maketecheasier.com/fix-winget-not-recognized-windows/

1738 I made a pull request that changes the installation of method of Winget if choco failed to install. Also refreshes Environment Variables. Another change was to remove the machine scope from winget program install script, as it fails with non-UWP apps: https://github.com/microsoft/winget-cli/issues/3936 I was seeing the same error (Error: This command cannot be run due to this error: The system cannot find the file specified.) when testing until I made these changes.

This was merged in and should be fixed. Can someone close this Issue?

Even if the Author is offline and currently can't close this issue, Github actions should close it after a period of inactivity, so all should be good.
