[Bug]: .folder file attempts to open whenever winget-autoupdate runs

[ABalloi]

The problem

On certain installations, the "C:\ProgramData\Winget-AutoUpdate\functions" folder contains a .folder file. It is unclear why the .folder file is present in this directory.

This is causing an issue where a pop-up stating "Windows can't open this type of file (.folder) appears whenever winget-upgrade.ps1 executes.

What version of WAU has the issue?

1.19.1

What version of Windows are you using (ex. Windows 11 22H2)?

Microsoft Windows 10 Enterprise x64 10.0.19045 N/A Build 19045

What version of winget are you using?

Windows Package Manager v1.6.3482

No response

Additional information

This line seems to be causing the issue, due to the ".folder" file existing in the functions directory.

Get-ChildItem "$WorkingDir\functions" | ForEach-Object { . $_.FullName }
