@JSteskal WinGet doesn't support OS updates. It also doesn't have a
central database for caching updates or approvals, as far as I know. I
suppose you could create your own custom repo for that, but that would
be a lot to maintain. If they did have plans to augment WinGet to be
something more robust...
Well I think it is said in the OP but eventually not so clear what was
meant with "timely and persistent security and compliance" in terms of
the scope. Thanks to @Kevin_Sheehan I have learned more about it and was
curious enough to break things just to see if it works as I expected -
and it did.
Is there any talk about replacing WSUS with WinGet? That would be a
proper way of doing the updates if there was a way to add a local Winget
server as a role to Windows Server. You could add it as a patch to
Windows Server 2025. This way you have modern tech, but are not tied to
Azure for updates.
Can confirm that accidently deleted policies in registry or other way
tatooes will be effectively fixed with config refresh. It's a huge win
after some testing and should be considered by default.
