Description
Relevant area(s)
WinGet CLI
Description of the new feature / enhancement
Currently, the winget show command does not display any information about the popularity of an application, such as the total number of downloads from the Microsoft Store.
It would be very useful to include the total download count for apps sourced from the Microsoft Store in the winget show output.
Current Output:
PS C:\Users\user> winget show 9NKSQGP7F2NH
