Description
Windows stores the version of programs in the programs Uninstall key in a REG_SZ value "DisplayVersion" (in addition to DisplayName and DisplayIcon already there), and it is read by many administrative tasks, e.g. "Programs and Features", and the new Desktop Installer (winget) takes its version information from there. Deluge Installer (2.1.1) still doesn't set this value, so please add it to the windows installer in Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Deluge!
Btw, version 2.1.1 cannot be set in the "Create New Ticket" form, 2.1.0 is the maximum. Please correct, 2.1.1 is current!
