@Utesgui You are right. But I like to extend this version with the msi installer from the url I provided. Can you improve it?
@ChristianOe out of pure curiosity: What is your scenario where the MSI installer is preferred or respectively what is the advantage of the MSI installer in this case?
@a-mnich you can customize the installation with an .mst file or with more msi switches. This is why I prefere always the .msi file. In addition a detection of the installation is much easier and have good standards.
@ChristianOe Which MSI switches are you going to use?
The manifests I just submit use a different installer, which contains the original MSI installer you have mentioned and all the MST files, so it will choose the locale and apply the MST file automatically. It has the same ARP entries as the MSI installer, but the switches might be different (The EXE bootstrapper does not pass all the switches to the inner MSI installer).
@SpecterShell The best way for me is the installer from foxit with the url https://cdn01.foxitsoftware.com/product/phantomPDF/desktop/win/2024.2.3/FoxitPDFEditor202423_L10N_Setup.msi
Foxit use the same URL like the exe Installer. Only at the end they changed it to .msi

Added in https://github.com/microsoft/winget-pkgs/pull/171516
The package will by default use the MSI installer under English locale and the EXE one under other locales. To force to use the MSI one, append --installer-type wix
to the WinGet command line.
How can we help?
I would like someone else to build the manifest.
