Winget package manager treats NVDA Alpha as older than version 2020.4 #12469

Description

@LeonarddeR

Note, it is likely that we have to file this issue against WinGet, but filing it here as well for reference.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Install WinGet
  2. Execute winget upgrade
  3. Note the following output
Name    Id                    Version              Available Source
-------------------------------------------------------------------
NVDA    NVAccess.NVDA         alpha-22934,e05715d3 2020.4    winget

Actual behavior:

2020.4 is treated as an update from Alpha, which is certainly not the case.

Expected behavior:

2020.4 should not be treated as an update from Alpha
