Conversation
Audacity 4.0.0 replaced the Inno Setup exe with a WiX MSI, so the input
pinned to installer_type exe matched no installer and the nightly ingest
panicked. Switch to msi, set program_publisher to the MSI Manufacturer
("Audacity", not the stale locale "Audacity Team"), install with
ALLUSERS=1 since the MSI does not set it, remove the side-by-side legacy
3.x Inno install after a successful install, and match the renamed
Audacity4.exe process in the open query.

🟡 Changes recommended
The legacy 3.x removal logic incorrectly parses registry UninstallString values (and the install script can succeed despite legacy uninstall failures), which can leave hosts in the intended “side-by-side” state indefinitely.
Once you've addressed the issues Copilot identified, you can request another Copilot review.
Pull request overview
Updates Fleet’s Windows Fleet-maintained app (FMA) for Audacity to track the new Audacity 4 WiX MSI in winget, ensuring ingest and patching logic continue working after the vendor switched installer formats and executable naming.
Changes:
- Switch Audacity winget input to
installer_type: msiand setprogram_publisher: "Audacity". - Update install/uninstall PowerShell scripts for MSI install + uninstall via UpgradeCode, and attempt removal of legacy Audacity 3.x (Inno Setup).
- Regenerate the Windows output manifest to 4.0.0 and add a patch-policy open-query override to match
audacity.exeandaudacity4.exe.
File summaries
| File | Description |
|---|---|
| pkg/patch_policy/patch_policy.go | Adds a Windows open-query override for Audacity’s new process name. |
| ee/maintained-apps/outputs/audacity/windows.json | Updates Audacity Windows output to 4.0.0, new publisher, open query, and UpgradeCode. |

- This legacy-removal path logs the Inno uninstaller exit code but does not act on failures, so the script can return success while leaving Audacity 3.x installed (which defeats the stated goal of converging on a single Audacity install). Consider failing the install when the legacy uninstall returns a non-zero exit code.

- Line 45: The legacy uninstall path currently only logs a nonzero
$process.ExitCode, allowing the install script to exit successfully. Update
audacity_install.ps1 at the legacy uninstaller handling to throw or exit nonzero
when removal fails, while preserving success behavior for a zero exit code;
regenerate the embedded script in
ee/maintained-apps/outputs/audacity/windows.json at line 22 with the same
failure propagation.
In `@ee/maintained-apps/inputs/winget/scripts/audacity_uninstall.ps1`:
- Line 45: Update the legacy uninstall handling around $uninstaller to parse
UninstallString into a clean executable path and existing arguments before
calling Test-Path, rather than using Trim('"'). Preserve the parsed arguments
when invoking the executable, then append the silent flags so valid uninstall
commands are executed instead of being skipped.

ingest-maintained-appsfailure:panic: ingesting winget app: failed to find installer for appon Audacity.What changed
Audacity 4.0.0 landed in winget on 2026-09-03 and the vendor replaced the Inno Setup exe with a WiX MSI (x64 and arm64 only). Our input was pinned to
installer_type: exe, so no installer matched and the whole ingest run died.inputs/winget/audacity.json:installer_type→msi, addprogram_publisher: "Audacity".scripts/audacity_install.ps1: install the MSI per-machine withALLUSERS=1, then remove any legacy Audacity 3.x Inno install after a successful install.scripts/audacity_uninstall.ps1: remove every product under the Audacity 4 UpgradeCode, then any legacy 3.x install the older FMA deployed.pkg/patch_policy/patch_policy.go: open-query override matching bothaudacity.exeandaudacity4.exe.outputs/audacity/windows.json: regenerated to 4.0.0.Why each piece is needed (verified with
msiinfoagainst the downloaded MSI)Audacity Team, but the MSIManufacturer(what osquery reports) isAudacity. Withoutprogram_publisherthe generated exists query never matches.ALLUSERS, so Fleet's SYSTEM-contextmsiexec /iwould register per-user in the SYSTEM profile.Audacity4.exe, so the default<name>.exeopen-query guess is wrong.%ProgramFiles%\Audacity 4with a new UpgradeCode and cannot remove the Inno product. Left alone, 3.x stays behind and is invisible to the new publisher-filtered queries, so it would never be patched. Removal runs only after the MSI install succeeds, so a failed install leaves the old app working.Reviewer notes
