Yep, as you noted, this is something only the upstream publisher can fix
Don't think this is a command that WinGet CLI supports 👀 |

First of: I'm aware that the following issue has to be adressed by the vendor and isn't a WinGet issue directly, so I'm not sure if this is the right place to bring this up. If not: feel free to delete/close the discussion :)
The issue itself is basically as the title states:
Winget uses the '--verysilent' command line argument during the installation of the package with ID 'DeepL.DeepL'.
Using this argument, the registry string "DisplayVersion" isn't set during/after the installation.
This causes WinGet's version detection to fail.
Using the argument '--silent' instead of '--verysilent' results in the same issue.
According to Copilot, this may be 'by design'.
I still wanted to bring this to attention. Maybe the vendor could change something in the future :)
