Able to replicate. This pesky bug makes using certain CLI apps via WinGet quite impossible.

I also have this issue. Had to remove and reinstall the package to get it added to PATH again (didn't want to mess with PATH manually).

@josh-hemphill Is this only happen on upgrade? I'm having things not showing up on $PATH even on new install.

For me, yes, fresh installs do show up in path, if it's not, maybe it's package specific. For me I only noticed it with pnpm

Sammy-T commented 3 weeks ago

I'm also having this issue while trying to update pnpm. Is someone able to confirm whether this is a winget issue or a package issue?

auanasgheps commented 1 week ago

I have this issue as well. Anyone from the team?
