-UninstallPrevious

Uninstall the previous version of the package during upgrade.Behavior will depend on the individual package. Some installers are designed to install new versions side-by-side. Some installers include a manifest that specifies “uninstallPrevious” so earlier versions are uninstalled without needing to use this command flag. In this case, using the winget upgrade –uninstall-previous command will tell WinGet to uninstall the previous version regardless of what is in the package manifest. If the package manifest does not include “uninstallPrevious” and the –uninstall-previous flag is not used, then the default behavior for the installer will apply.
