Description

When using the Winget plugin to search for the Winget package 'bat' by sharkdp, the result appears towards the bottom of the list. This happens because there are many packages with names containing 'bat', such as Adobe Acrobat or authors name have bat in it, causing the desired package to be listed way further down, making it hard to find.

  • Expected Behavior: The package 'bat' by sharkdp should appear at or near the top of the search results.

  • Actual Behavior: The package 'bat' by sharkdp appears near the bottom of the search results.

  • Steps to Reproduce:

    1. Open PowerToys Run.
    2. Activate the Winget plugin.
    3. Search for the package bat
    4. Observe the position of 'bat' in the search results.
  • Environment:

    • Operating System: Windows 11
    • PowerToys Version: v0.82.0
    • Winget Plugin Version: v1.3.0
