`winget` doesn't match 7-zip, by substring or even by id

[sba923]

Brief description of your issue

Listing or updating 7-zip using winget doesn't work:

Here are the logs: wingetlogs202406050938.zip

Steps to reproduce

Run winget list 7z or winget list --id 7zip.7zip or winget update --id 7zip.7zip on a system with 7-zip 24.05 and 24.06 (in my case, both are reported in the registry) installed.

All commands fail with No installed package found matching input criteria.

Expected behavior

winget should find the package, the same way Get-WinGetPackage does.

Actual behavior

winget considers the package is not installed (except when running winget upgrade)

Hey, thanks for sharing this. I believe the issue is related to packages that are installed "side-by-side". We do have an experimental feature you can test with to see if it addresses the issue.

"Side-by-side improvements" is the name of the feature, and the property is "sideBySide". You can see if it's enabled with winget features and you can enable it using winget settings.
