Running & $winget export -s winget -o $tmpFile --include-versions directly produces the following error from winget.exe at the end of the output:
...
An unexpected error occurred while executing the command:
Download request status is not success.
0x80190194 : Not found (404).
Expectation
Expectation was that if there were an internal winget.exe error, PowerShell's error stream would reflect that
Additional Information
I suppressed the Get-Job error by modifying line 122 in this way:
if ('wg' -in (Get-Job).Name) {
But I am unsure of the best way to write useful error information from Winget to the PS error stream.
