upgrade --all will identify all the applications with upgrades available. When you run winget upgrade --all the Windows Package Manager will look for all applications that have updates available and attempt to install the updates.
This is still a bit ambiguous, and technically incorrect. Running upgrade -all WILL do the upgrades. The command would be just Upgrade to identify the applications with upgrades available. So this should be written as:
upgrade will identify all the applications with upgrades available. When you run winget upgrade --all the Windows Package Manager will look for all applications that have updates available and attempt to install the updates.
