In the meantime, this may be useful to other users searching through the GitHub issues.

I'll do my part to help document what I know in this issue, and I leave it to others to do a pull request and/or integrate this information. This leads to broken scripts and hard-to-troubleshoot behavior. The installer should not return until winget is actually in the path.It doesn't make sense to allow an unlicensed version to be successfully installed when it results in bricked software. The installer should detect if a license is specified and if it isn't, prevent the software from being installed while simultaneously showing the user the correct command for specifying a license.

The existing state of affairs is bad UX no software should be silently failing. If that is not possible for some technical reason, then a missing VSLibs should be detected and the user should be shown a clear and actionable error message.

The installer should automatically install the require VCLibs dependency, if necessary.Better documentation should exist please integrate my work below.As a brand new winget user, it was painful to get up and running with this software.
