Why does .Net SDK 6.0.200 not update the lower version of .Net SDK 6.0.101

When I try to upgrade the lower version of .Net SDK 6.0.101 with higher version of .Net SDK 6.0.200, it's installing separate package of .Net SDK 6.0.200 along with .Net SDK 6.0.101. But this has not happened with the standalone updates for example when I try to upgrade lower version of .Net Runtime 6.0.1 with higher version of .Net runtime 6.0.2 in this case it is updating to higher version 6.0.2 runtime and the lower version is not present along with higher version. But in .Net SDK higher version package 6.0.200 is installing along with lower version package 6.0.101(Please find the attached screenshot).Can anyone help me know why this is happening with only .Net SDK Version. 177160-screenshot-33.png177231-screenshot-35.png

    The updates are always installed side by side. There is no update in place. To see the installed sdks it is

    dotnet —list-sdks

    For the runtimes it’s

    dotnet —list-runtimes

    Note: what you are looking at are just installer artifacts
