winget-cli: `winget` fails on Windows for ARM

Brief description of your issue

When running any winget command I get…

Could not open the resource file: 0x80073b1f : ResourceMap Not Found.

Steps to reproduce

winget search git, for example (or winget search $anything)

Expected behavior

To be able to run winget to install things.

Actual behavior

Fails to run any command, with all updates from Windows Update and the Store app installed.

Environment

Edition	Windows 11 Home
Version	21H2
Installed on	‎2/‎14/‎2022
OS build	22000.527
Experience	Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.22000.527.0

Can’t run winget --info, it fails with the same error as every other command.

Running in Parallels on an M1 Max if any of that might be relevant.

it seems to be working now!

I need to get a Mac with Parallels.

Right, so on the basis that something must have been fully broken, I upgraded to Parallels v18.1.0 (53311).

I deleted the previous Win11 VM, then created a new Win11 VM through Parallels’ automatic system and it all works flawlessly now 😃

It seems like they are automatically resolved just like on other platforms (UI Xaml has to be around anyway for Windows 11 UI stuff). I didn’t have to manually install anything.
