Category of the issue

Installation issue.

Brief description of your issue

The package HiBitSoftware.HiBitUninstaller fails to install because the download source (hibitsoft.ir) is unreachable, resulting in a DNS/connection error (0x80072ee7). This makes the package unusable for many users whose ISPs or regions have issues connecting to the .ir domain.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open a terminal (Command Prompt or PowerShell).
  2. Run the command: winget install HiBitSoftware.HiBitUninstaller
  3. Wait for the download to initiate.

Also reproducible when attempting to install via UniGetUI (formerly WinGetUI).

Actual behavior

The download fails with the following error:
An unexpected error occurred while executing the command: InternetOpenUrl() failed. 0x80072ee7 : unknown error

cmd:

C:\Windows\System32>winget install HiBitSoftware.HiBitUninstaller
