Upgrading programs installed on a different disk installs to the wrong disk. #1570

Open marsfan opened 3 years ago

Brief description of your issue

When upgrading a program that is installed on a different hard drive than default, winget runs a clean install to the default hard disk instead.

Steps to reproduce

I have had this happen with multiple programs. I am using HandBrake in this example since I know it does it with this program. This example assumes that in addition to having a C: drive, you also have a second HDD/SSD mounted as D:

  1. Install handbrake 1.3.3 to D:\Program Files\Handbrake
  2. Run winget upgrade handbrake to upgrade program.

Expected behavior

New version of handbrake installed to D;\Program Files\Handbrake

Actual behavior

New version of handbrake installed to C:\Program Files\Handbrake, and old version still present in D:\Program Files\Handbrake

Environment
