Channel element in manifests

[frendguo]

Why doesn't -> in the manifest file contain a description of the channel type? Please.

What exactly are you referring to? Can you provide a screenshot of what's missing and what exactly you think should be there?

@AndrewRathbun Sorry, I didn't express myself clearly.

As shown above, from Microsoft-Windows-Windows defender, for each channel of a provider, a channel type is needed to describe what type of channel it belongs to, Operational or Debug.
But in Channels does not have the type field.

Sorry for the late response @frendguo

The missing field is due to the tool we used to dump those XML manifests. We used WEPExplorer and as you can see here the code doesn't extract the channel type into its own field from the XML. The source code needs to be modified to take that into consideration while taking edge cases (no channel assigned).

Unfortunately for now the only way to get that info so is to extract it from the path.
