The error says you were on .86. This error typically happens when a cleaner style app is run and one of the things they do at times is delete the the installers that are used to ... uninstall.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/powertoys/install#extracting-the-msi-from-the-bundle shows how to pull the MSI out of the bundle.

https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/releases/download/v0.86.0/PowerToysUserSetup-0.86.0-x64.exe is the installer you'll want from https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/releases/tag/v0.86.0 release

Thanks that's helped all updated now.
I hadn't run a cleaner to my knowledge though something could have happened inadvertently I'm sure.
Actually I did roll back the 24H2 update recently so maybe related to that? (Absolutely unusable update FWIW).

However the panel definitely said that I'm on v0.87.0, unsure if this might have been caused by a botched install or something else?

I have the same issue, setup is crashing/aborting with no feedback when I want to update from v0.86.0 to latest. Please fix.
