Brief description of your issue
When using the command
winget update
as a non-admin terminal I get the error message "Failed in attempting to update the source: winget". This does not happens if I use the same command elevated.I'm not 100% sure, but this started happening after upgrading to Windows 11. On Windows 10 I did not had this issue and previously I had the exact same issue on clean installation of Windows 11.
