Note

Before winget.exe version 1.9.x generally available, I can simply perform #170577 on my local repository and keep syncing with upstream by using rebase action. Then Tools/SandboxTest.ps1 changed a lot and I met huge merge conflicts.

"API rate limit" problem really affects me. I'd request an official support resolving this problem. 🙏🏼
