[1.1.4] [Regression?] WindowsAppRuntimeInstaller.exe fails if newer version is present

[DominicMaas]

Describe the bug

Installing 1.1.4 on a system with 1.1.5 fails.

Easy to test this out in Windows Sandbox.

Steps to reproduce the bug

1. Run WindowsAppRuntimeInstall.exe for version 1.1.5
2. Run WindowsAppRuntimeInstall.exe for version 1.1.4, see error, even though it was fixed in WindowsAppRuntimeInstaller.exe fails if newer version present #2723

Package deployment result : 0x80073d06 The package could not be installed because a higher version of this package is already installed.
ErrorMessage: Windows cannot install package Microsoft.WindowsAppRuntime.1.1_1004.584.2120.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe because it has version 1004.584.2120.0. A higher version 1005.616.1651.0 of this package is already installed.One or more install operations failed. Result: 0x80073d06

Expected behavior

Installer should report a success error code, as the dependency is installed. This breaks my current installer on machines that have 1.1.5 already installed.

@sachintaMSFT tag you're it

Seems a dupe of a known issue. And fix in progress?

No, it is not a known issue. Nothing changed in the code path of this fix. So, looking into it.

I'm seeing this issue as well with 1.4:

Add-AppxPackage : Deployment failed with HRESULT: 0x80073D06, The package could not be installed because a higher
version of this package is already installed.
Windows cannot install package Microsoft.WindowsAppRuntime.1.4_4000.1049.117.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe because it has
version 4000.1049.117.0. A higher version 4000.1082.2259.0 of this package is already installed.

the command line Get-AppPackageLog -ActivityID 40eea5b5-47a2-0002-def0-f640a247da01
