I'm seeing the same. Here's an extract from my logs with a really weird error:

2023-09-13 14:33:55.042 [REPO] Failed to update source: winget

The file C:/Users/Tim/AppData/Local/Temp/WinGet/Microsoft.Winget.Source_8wekyb3d8bbwe.msix is 0B but downloading from https://cdn.winget.microsoft.com/cache/source.msix gives an 8MB file which I assume is correct.

The log seems to indicate that the source download was complete. I would have expected some kind of error with the download if it wrote zero bytes of data from the request. It looks like it just tries to parse it regardless and of course can't read anything.

Sounds like there are currently CDN issues: #3652 (comment)

What resolved "Failed in attempting to update the source: winget" for me:

1. Download this file: https://cdn.winget.microsoft.com/cache/source.msix (e.g. with Edge)
2. Open the Downloads folder
3. Right-click, choose install, follow the wizard to install the package.

No clue why this is necessary. Source list remains the same:

PS C:> winget source list
Name    Argument
-----------------------------------------------------
msstore https://storeedgefd.dsx.mp.microsoft.com/v9.0
winget  https://cdn.winget.microsoft.com/cache

Yes, I did run the command mention at the top here: #3652 (comment)

But I was running a more recent version anyways (1.5? 1.6.??).
