## **How long do packages take to be published?**
4141
The answer to this question depends on multiple factors. First, the pull request approval. When submitting a package to the repository, your pull request will go through a series of automated checks in the validation pipeline. You will see labels applied to your pull request based on the results of the validation. Secondly, all pull requests must be reviewed and approved by one of our [community moderators](Moderation.md). Finally, the pull request must be merged and pass through the publishing pipeline. Once the publishing pipeline has succeeded for your pull request, you will see a comment and a label indicating this status.

After your PR is approved and merged, the changes are *generally* published within one hour. If you are not seeing the changes published after your pull request has been merged, check the [WinGetSvc-Publish Pipeline](https://dev.azure.com/ms/winget-pkgs/_build?definitionId=338) for errors. If the pipeline is erroring, please check to see if any [issues](https://github.com/microsoft/winget-pkgs/issues) have been opened regarding the failures and create a [new issue](https://github.com/microsoft/winget-pkgs/issues/new) if there isn't one already.

## **What does this label on my PR mean?**
45-
During the automated validation process, labels are added to pull request to help the bots which manage the repository and to manage the status of open requests. All of these labels are described in more detail on the [Microsoft Documentation Site](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/package-manager/package/winget-validation#pull-request-labels)

## **Why does a package have the version "Unknown"?**
4747
When a package has the version "Unknown" it means that Windows Package Manager has detected that the package is installed, but the publisher is not providing Windows with the version of the package. If you are using Windows Package Manager v1.2, these packages will always be re-installed when running `winget upgrade`; however, as of Windows Package Manager v1.3, packages with unknown version are excluded from upgrade by default, but can be included by using the switch `--include-unknown`. If a package you use frequently has an unknown version, we recommend reaching out to the publisher of the application and asking them to set the `DisplayVersion` registry key in their installer.
