   Hello Owen,

   Thank you for your response. The image is "Visual Studio 2022", and it
   shows that the 2022 version of Coverity Scan is installed there.

   Ok. I've added it to the list for inclusion on our next image update.
   In the meantime, you can try putting something like the script below into a .ps1 file in your repository and calling it in the install stage of your build. Hopefully that will let you continue without errors until we release a new image.

   
   Write-Host "Installing Coverity 2023.12.2..." -ForegroundColor Cyan
   $destPath = "$env:SYSTEMDRIVE\Tools\Coverity"
   if (Test-Path $destPath ) {
     echo "Deleting $($destPath)..."
     del $destPath -Recurse -Force
   }
   
   Write-Host "Downloading..."
   $zipPath = "$env:TEMP\cov-analysis-win64-2023.12.2.zip"
   (New-Object Net.WebClient).DownloadFile('https://appveyordownloads.blob.core.windows.net/misc/cov-analysis-win64-2023.12.2.zip', $zipPath)
   
   Write-Host "Unpacking..."
   $tempPath = "$env:TEMP\Coverity"
   7z x $zipPath -o"$tempPath" | Out-Null
   
   [IO.Directory]::Move("$tempPath\cov-analysis-win64-2023.12.2", $destPath)
   del $tempPath -Recurse -Force
   del $zipPath
   
   Add-Path "$destPath\bin"
   
   Write-Host "Installed" -ForegroundColor Green

   Hello Owen,

   Thank you so much, especially for the temporary solution. No problem, I can
   wait until the official image is updated -- prefer to avoid custom
   downloads during the continuous integration builds.

   Have a brilliant day and weekend!
