Brief description of your issue

When downloading a store app, the user is presented with the following if they do not have admin access to the license.

Failed to retrieve Microsoft Store package license An unexpected error occurred while executing the command: 0x80190193 : Forbidden (403).

Given this is targeting a user or ITPro. For the user, they can run the app and the license will come down from the store. Therefore not an error. For the ITPro, they can pass in the --skip-license to avoid this case.

Steps to reproduce

winget download 9WZDNCRFJ3PZ -d c:\temp\deleteme\9WZDNCRFJ3PZ

Expected behavior

To be told the package was successfully installed and not error.

Actual behavior

Failed to retrieve Microsoft Store package license An unexpected error occurred while executing the command: 0x80190193 : Forbidden (403).

You can use "--skip-license" to avoid downloading the license file. It's only necessary if the intended use is for "offline" installation on another host that isn't able to connect to the licensing server.
