This method forces the Microsoft Store to download the specific "App Installer" bundle that contains winget. $Path = "$env:TEMP\Microsoft
Add-AppxPackage -RegisterByFamilyName -MainPackage Microsoft.DesktopAppInstaller_8wekyb3d8bbwe
Why this works: This command tells the system to register the App Installer package using its family name. If the store sees a newer version available online, it will pull it automatically.
