Windows Package Manager Manifest Creator v0.4.1.1
Small update to improve Winget-Create's update command. We added an interactive menu at the end of the interactive (-i) flow so that users can now modify individual fields across any manifest to their liking. This should help those who want to make slight tweaks to non-installer related fields.

Windows Package Manager Manifest Creator v0.4.0.3 Preview
We're excited to announce some additional new features in v0.4 of Winget-Create! This release adds a navigational menu to the New command which allows for more control when filling out optional fields for the installers. We've also added an interactive update feature which will prompt the user to manually interact and provide the installer URL they wish to update with. This should help resolve many of the failed matches with the automated update.
Special thanks to @OfficialEsco, @apetresc, and @VlaDexa for filing issues so we can continue making improvements!

Windows Package Manager Manifest Creator v0.3.0 Preview
We're excited to announce that we've added several new features to the tool. Some of the most notable ones include creating new manifests and updating existing manifests with multiple installer urls as well as prompting for optional defaultLocale fields when creating a new manifest.
Regarding usage with multiple installer urls, we have noticed that some installer manifests specify an architecture that is different from what is detected in the installer binary. To handle these discrepancies, we have implemented architecture detection based on regex string matching from the installer url.
We've had a lot of great feedback and feature suggestions from the community, special thanks to @OfficialEsco, @tiziodcaio, @apetresc, @chausner for giving feedback/suggestions and helping us make the tool better!
