Uninstall hugo installed with winget?

It’s been a while since I last used hugo and I installed with winget, then I realized I already had a choco install, so I want to remove that one and keep the choco version.

Winget doesn’t show up the extended hugo version which is the one showed on the website to install and doesn’t seem to uninstall it either, so I’m not sure if it’s installed a certain way on a certain folder or what happened.

Seems like I have the same issue. I installed Hugo using:

winget install Hugo.Hugo.Extended

The package is still on my computer, and the winget find command displays it.

However, when I run:

winget uninstall Hugo.Hugo.Extended
or any other variation (winget remove Hugo, etc.)

I get the error:

No installed package found matching input criteria.

How can I uninstall Hugo?

The inability of the winget CLI to uninstall Hugo by ID is a problem for the winget team:
https://github.com/microsoft/winget-pkgs/issues/216199

Uninstall by name instead.

To uninstall the standard edition:

winget uninstall --name "Hugo"

To uninstall the extended edition:

winget uninstall --name "Hugo (Extended)"
