Not yet. That’s part of:

I don’t believe any changes will need to be made to WinGet. It’s primarily work we’re coordinating with the Microsoft Store team. Please add your 👍 to that issue.

The “msstore” source currently only works for Apps that are “Free” and rated “e” for everyone.

WORKS NOW! Thank you SO Much for this! It appears that PDN is now in zip format! 😊

Getting the same error with a different Store app.

winget install `
            --id 9N4WGH0Z6VHQ `
            --accept-package-agreements `
            --accept-source-agreements `
            --silent

It does successfully show the package description.

I’ll close it. Be sure to reopen if you see this again.
