What is the bug / inaccuracy?:
The package identifier in Winget is invalid according to the documentation. When searching using 'portmaster' as the identifier, multiple results are found.

winget search --id portmaster

# result:
# Name       Id                                   Version  Source
# ----------------------------------------------------------------
# Portmaster Safing.Portmaster                    1.6.5    winget
# Portmaster SafingICSTechnologiesGmbH.Portmaster 1.0.13.0 winget

Note: both of then pointing to manual link for installation:

winget show Safing.Portmaster
winget show SafingICSTechnologiesGmbH.Portmaster

# Installer Url: https://updates.safing.io/latest/windows_amd64/packages/portmaster-installer.exe

What would you expect instead?:
Ensuring the package ID in the documentation matches the results found in winget.
