[BUG] Windows PowerShell installer (install.ps1) serves outdated version 2.0.65 while Linux is at 2.0.69

[andylbrummer]

Bug Description

The Windows PowerShell installer script downloads an outdated version of Claude Code (2.0.65) while the Linux installer provides version 2.0.69.

Environment

• OS: Windows 11
• Installation method: PowerShell installer
• Current installed version: 2.0.65
• Expected version: 2.0.69 (same as Linux)

Steps to Reproduce

1. Run the Windows installer:

   irm https://claude.ai/install.ps1 | iex

2. Check the installed version:

   claude --version

3. Observe version 2.0.65 is installed

Expected Behavior

The Windows installer should install the same version (2.0.69) as the Linux installer.

Additional Context

• claude update fails with "Another process is currently updating Claude" (stale lock)
• claude update --force and claude install --force also fail
• The fix for the stale lock issue is in 2.0.67, which can't be installed due to this bug
• Workaround: Install via npm: npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code@latest
