I believe there is a chance with the Upgrade or the UpgradeBehavior node being properly configured some of these cases can be addressed with today's client and schema. |

If I read it correctly, you are suggesting to automatically uninstall the old version through winget? Having multiple versions of Unity is a core part of the application, so I don't think it would be a good solution. |

@Master-Guy thanks for the additional context. I think I have a better understanding of the scenario now. This is an interesting situation. I'm not sure yet how we might address with Let me try to make sure I have the scenario correct. I have a package . This package can have multiple versions installed at the same time. When I run Is that correct? |

When installing UnityTechnologies.Unity packages, it does not uninstall the previous version. This is part of the way it should be working in this specific case. However, winget doesn't deal with this properly: For each version of UnityTechnologies.Unity that is already installed (and not up-to-date), winget installs the newest version once. This means that if you already have 3 out-of-date versions, it will download and install the most recent version 3 times.
Would it be possible to use only the latest installed version of each distinct installed ID?
