Error 2: Incorrect indication for plugins' available updates, incorrect versions named, and failure trying to update

  • Furthermore, suddenly all my installed plugins now have the green dot notification that they have an update, which they didn't have before installing the new version:

  • Trying to update any of them opens the update prompt, where noticeably the versions are incorrect, but in a specific way:

  • All the plugins show that they have an update, specifically from "version 1.20.0" to whatever their actual current version is.
  • Trying to do the update, it fails with an error message. Looking at the logs, this exception is logged:
22:35:02.9042+02:00 - ERROR - PluginsManager.RequestUpdateAsync - Update failed for Plugins Manager
EXCEPTION OCCURS: System.Net.Http.HttpRequestException: Error code <NotFound> returned from <https://github.com/Flow-Launcher/Flow.Launcher.Plugin.PluginsManager/releases/download/v3.2.4/Flow.Launcher.Plugin.PluginsManager.zip>

Let me know if you need me to send some other log or similar.
