you should change the title as x64 is amd64, but you mean arm64

the last PR #168424 missed the msixbundle file for arm as it is not released yet.

@anamnavi when will we get the msix?

[anamnavi]

thanks for catching this and my apologies, I just created a PR for the msix for 7.4.5: #169497

@agowa this will make the msix available for arm, not the msi for arm. We are not including the arm msi in the winget manifest for 7.4.x releases (but will when 7.5 goes stable) but the arm msi is available on Github here: https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/releases/tag/v7.4.5
