When I ran "winget list" I expected to get a list of all of the packages that I had installed by running winget packagenamehere, but instead I got a list of most of my installed programs. This list included the "Everything" alpha release, which I installed manually through an exe from their forums. Winget listed this program's source as "winget", despite me having installed it through an exe and not through winget.
A program shouldn't be listed in "winget list" if it wasn't installed through winget
C:\Users\User>winget list

Alternatively, the Source field should be empty:

The source field isn't stating which source the package was installed from (there is no way for winget to detect that behavior), rather it is saying that Everything 1.5.0.1332a is available through the "winget" source.

I see. I got the wrong impression. Discussion for this continues in #1155
