Description

During manually validation in Windows Sandbox, browsh.exe cannot launch Mozilla.Firefox (installed via winget.exe). I think this behaviour is not expected.

In microsoft/winget-pkgs#104234, you had some suggestions for changes? Would you like to make a PR so others can test it?

[Dragon1573]

Okay, I'll try if it can help. 😄

[Dragon1573]

The pull request is successfully merged, but I failed to build the executable on my own.

Will validate the patch manually later. 😄

Tools/SandboxTest.ps1 is currently unavailable because there's an error in the script file. Moderators of microsoft/winget-pkgs are currently working on it.

Just create a pull request without verify the manifest locally. If it can pass the installation, then #502 is proved to be a valid patch.

[Dragon1573]

Microsoft Azure Pipelines of that pull request is successfully passed. This is a valid fix ❤️

• New package: browsh.browsh version 1.8.2 microsoft/winget-pkgs#136968 (comment)

[tombh]

Awesome! I'll make a new release then.
