Known issue with Windows Powershell ver. <= 5.1 (desktop):
Due to the ascii encoding, packages with longer names than 30 chars may corrupt
the 'winget upgrade' result, i.e. info about the long name package
and the packages listed after it.
Please use this script with PowerShell ver. > 5.1 (core) if you can
or avoid installing long name packages with winget.
