What's new in Windows Package Manager 1.4

Community Manager

Last week, the Windows Package Manager team released WinGet 1.4. What's new?

 

  • Support for .zip-based packages
  • Additional manifest values in the output (if present): tags, purchase URL, etc.
  • New command aliases! 
    • add for install
    • update for upgrade
    • remove and rm for uninstall
    • ls for list
    • config for settings
  • Enhancements to detect that a package was already installed and switch to the upgrade flow.

For all the details, and a cool tip, check out @Demitrius_Nelon's post in the Windows Command Line blog.
