At the moment, building the source code requires an additional NuGet source (that you can find in the GitHub actions build). This is because it relies on a modified version of PCarsTools (built as a library and not as an executable, as well as with some other changes).

For now I don't think we need a command line argument, just to check both App IDs and find the first one that is installed. Later I plan to add a configuration file where all those parameters can be configured.

Have raised a Pull Request and built an artifact (at the end of this build) that should detect both versions. I don't have access to the beta so can't test it myself.

It would be good to support both versions (I have both downloaded) not just first one you find by id. That's why I was going the argument route, easy to just add the argument to switch between versions. Changing config file works as well, just a little more involved.

Yep, I understand now and my initial attempt didn't work. I have an idea on how to achieve both at the same time. Hope to have something later today or tomorrow.
