To accept these unrecognized words as correct and remove the previously acknowledged and now absent words, you could run the following commands

... in a clone of the git@github.com:JohnMcPMS/winget-cli.git repository
on the uninstall-scope-check branch (ℹ️ how do I use this?):

curl -s -S -L 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/check-spelling/check-spelling/v0.0.26/apply.pl' |
perl - 'https://github.com/microsoft/winget-cli/actions/runs/28628605396/attempts/1' &&
git commit -m 'Update check-spelling metadata'

Pattern suggestions ✂️ (2)

You could add these patterns to .github/actions/spelling/patterns.txt:

# Automatically suggested patterns

# hit-count: 1 file-count: 1
# assign regex
= /[^*].*?(?:[a-z]{3,}|[A-Z]{3,}|[A-Z][a-z]{2,}).*/[gi]?(?=\W|$)

# hit-count: 1 file-count: 1
# regex choice
\(\?:[^)]+\|[^)]+\)

Alternatively, if a pattern suggestion doesn't make sense for this project, add a # to the beginning of the line in the candidates file with the pattern to stop suggesting it.

If the flagged items are 🤯 false positives

If items relate to a ...

• binary file (or some other file you wouldn't want to check at all).

  Please add a file path to the excludes.txt file matching the containing file.

  File paths are Perl 5 Regular Expressions - you can test yours before committing to verify it will match your files.

  ^ refers to the file's path from the root of the repository, so ^README\.md$ would exclude README.md (on whichever branch you're using).

• well-formed pattern.

  If you can write a pattern that would match it,
  try adding it to the patterns.txt file.

  Patterns are Perl 5 Regular Expressions - you can test yours before committing to verify it will match your lines.

  Note that patterns can't match multiline strings.

@JohnMcPMS do you have more context on this?
What is the EOP paths concern?

[florelis]

@henrivdr01 The uninstall command is read from the registry, and for packages installed as regular user, that is in HKCU, which does not require admin to write. So, we shouldn't just run that command as admin because somebody could have changed it.
