[axieum]

Please confirm these before moving forward

• I have searched for my issue and not found a work-in-progress/duplicate/resolved issue.
• I have not been informed if the issue is resolved in a preview version of the winget client.

Category of the issue

Installation issue.

Brief description of your issue

The TechPowerUp.GPU-Z package installer download URL is no longer valid.

Steps to reproduce

$ winget install --id TechPowerUp.GPU-Z
Found TechPowerUp GPU-Z [TechPowerUp.GPU-Z] Version 2.55.0

Downloading https://us2-dl.techpowerup.com/files/GPU-Z.2.55.0.exe
An unexpected error occurred while executing the command:
Download request status is not success.
0x80190194 : unknown error

Actual behavior

$ winget install --id TechPowerUp.GPU-Z
Found TechPowerUp GPU-Z [TechPowerUp.GPU-Z] Version 2.55.0
This application is licensed to you by its owner.

Downloading https://us2-dl.techpowerup.com/files/GPU-Z.2.55.0.exe
An unexpected error occurred while executing the command:
Download request status is not success.
0x80190194 : unknown error

Expected behavior

To download correctly from the actual download URL.

https://us1-dl.techpowerup.com/files/3UAXiZS...jCma6R9zA/170...67/GPU-Z.2.55.0.exe

Note, the URL parts (containing ...) appear to be unique to the download. So I wonder if it is even possible to get a predictable download URL now?

### Screenshots and Logs

_No response_

[Dragon1573]

Download URL presented in manifest files responses HTTP 404 Not Found.

The generated URL is got from a redirection by making a POST request of Server List. As winget.exe can only make GET request to download server and follow redirections, we might not able to fix this problem.

[Dragon1573]

Because v2.56.0 was released.

NO, this is NOT the reason.

Including latest v2.56.0, all releases are using dynamic, encrypted, auto-generated download URL. This is not a static vanity URL which always point to the latest version.

The download works fine for me using winget install TechPowerUp.GPU-Z.

https://us2-dl.techpowerup.com/files/GPU-Z.2.55.0.exe returning 404 in the browser is not a bug. It is expected behavior since the developer only allows usage of these static URLs through popular package managers to prevent hotlinking. See #70469 (comment)

[mdanish-kh]

As for the author facing this issue through installing with WinGet, it may be possible that the URL is blocked in your region / the mirror us2 is not working for you.

Can you check whether another mirror works for you? I'll add the steps below to check this

1. Clone the winget-pkgs repository (git clone https://github.com/microsoft/winget-pkgs)
2. Navigate to TechPowerUp.GPU-Z version 2.55.0 directory (cd manifests/t/TechPowerUp/GPU-Z/2.55.0)
3. Inside the installer file (TechPowerUp.GPU-Z.installer.yaml), change InstallerUrl from the us2 mirror to https://us1-dl.techpowerup.com/files/GPU-Z.2.55.0.exe
4. Install the manifest locally with winget install --manifest <path_to_manifest_folder> i.e., winget install --manifest manifests/t/TechPowerUp/GPU-Z/2.55.0 (you will need to enable installing local manifest files setting if not enabled, winget will prompt and show you the command for if it's disabled)

See if this URL works and installs the package for you

[Dragon1573]

Manual validated first 6 server of GPU-Z. All of them are valid and no errors during downloading.
