Display version to WinGet

I would like Elm to make the version number available in the Windows Control Panel. The WinGet package manager needs this information to know when to update the software. I think there is a registry key called DisplayVersion that WinGet checks.
Thanks

Thanks for reporting this! To set expectations:

  • Issues are reviewed in batches, so it can take some time to get a response.
  • Ask questions in a community forum. You will get an answer quicker that way!
  • If you experience something similar, open a new issue. We like duplicates.

Finally, please be patient with the core team. They are trying their best with limited resources.

WinGet already has the version number: https://github.com/microsoft/winget-pkgs/blob/fca0ecc193e998d681add1f6b8c8894787fa578e/manifests/e/EvanCzaplicki/Elm/0.19.1/EvanCzaplicki.Elm.installer.yaml#L5

The maintainers of that winget-pkgs repo will need to manage updating their data.
