Windows Package Manager 1.10.40 Preview released

Microsoft has released Windows Package Manager 1.10.40 preview, which represents the second development build for both Windows 10 and Windows 11. The update incorporates experimental features such as sixel support for icons and an enhanced progress visualization. To utilize these features, users are required to operate a terminal that is compatible with sixels, such as the most recent Windows Terminal Preview build. The handling of WinGet configuration files that utilize DSC resources requiring elevation has been improved for better efficiency. The experimental feature "Configure Self Elevation" is available for activation. The release addresses a bug that leads to a crash in MSVC's C++ STL, resulting in binaries compiled with newer tooling crashing when utilizing an older VCRuntime.
