What's Wrong?

Tried to install using winget install Anthropic.ClaudeCode but things did not actually work in the end, footer of Claude Code showed errors that native installation did not exist and using /usage threw an error. Had to uninstall, reinstall via the recommended approach, and then even log out and log in again to be able to use /usage.

What Should Happen?

Winget should be equivalent to the (scary) script installation.
