This issue might be a duplicate of #27671 and #27674
and it seems that

.\bootstrap-vcpkg.bat

and then installing again works.

[MaartenHilferink]

I'll close this issue now, as performing ".\bootstrap-vcpkg.bat" fixed it, however, wouldn't it be better that any vcpkg action, such as install, update, upgrade, etc. would first bootstrap-vcpkg ? Or, at least, suggest doing that ?
