Category of the issue

Installer hash mismatch.

Brief description of your issue

The PotPlayer package (Daum.PotPlayer, version 26.01.15.0) cannot be upgraded using winget because the installer hash check fails. Winget reports a hash mismatch even though the installer downloaded manually from the official CDN matches the hash listed in the manifest. This suggests that the CDN may be serving different builds intermittently, or the manifest hash does not correspond to the file winget receives

Steps to reproduce

  • Attempt to upgrade PotPlayer using winget.
  • Winget downloads the installer from the official CDN.
  • Winget rejects the installer due to a hash mismatch

Actual behavior

Winget refuses to install the package and displays a hash mismatch error. The installation cannot proceed, and the security hash override is not allowed when running as administrator. The manually downloaded installer has the same SHA256 hash as the manifest, so the mismatch appears to occur only during the winget‑initiated download.

Expected behavior

Winget should accept the installer if the downloaded file matches the hash defined in the manifest. The upgrade process should complete without errors.
