Try https://cdn.winget.microsoft.com/cache/source.msix. If it doesn't work and returns an error or downloads a file with a size of 0 Bytes (as it does for me), then it's the CDN acting up again (at least from what I've gathered looking at past issues).

[denelon]

Try uninstalling and reinstalling the source.
winget uninstall Microsoft.Winget.Source_8wekyb3d8bbwe
Then run winget source reset --force as an administrator.

It's 0 Bytes here, the CDN is broken again.

Yeah same here, two days winget does not work, it's something that shouldn't happen often, MS really should monitoring this CDN

[grubeninspekteur]

Would be great if Winget caught this error and printed something like "malformed package". Or at least print the URL it's downloading from and the number of bytes like apt update does.

[amnweb]

Or give us the option to change the mirror/source or country, because via VPN winget works now.

Same error

I agree. This is Microsoft here, not some two-bit little company that only has four or five people working for it; this is a global company and if Microsoft expects WinGet to become nothing more than some little hobby project, they need to take it a hell of a lot more serious than they have been.

Come on Microsoft, fix this!

[MichelMichels]

Same issue here in Belgium. I don't know if this is geographically related.

[trparky]

Nope, I'm in the US.

[PinkSerenity]

It's resolved on my end. Interestingly, the WinGet executable that's shipped with marticliment/WingetUI has worked all the time.

[BlockyTheDev]

On my side it is fixed, too. I will leave this open as it got the label "Issue-Bug" and I think there should be done something to avoid a so long location-dependent downtime especially in such a big company and/or a better information message instead of the general message that the source couldn't be updated.

I believe here it's not a problem on our side, because this domain already resolved with the correct IP. The problem is with the CDN and cache.

I don't know why but if I turn on WARP VPN or edit host file, everything works normally. Don't know if Microsoft add Vietnam to blocked list 🤣

[denelon]

I believe this issue has been resolved and was related to CDN issues we were having in the past.

Hey everyone in Vietnam, try FPT instead of Viettel. The FPT connection to Microsoft's CDN works without VPN.

(I don't know about VNPT.)
