Two UniGetUI updates in one day. They're on top of it so far. I will enjoy it while it lasts.

Really? So much on top that the second one was to fix a major bug in the first update.

UniGetUI showing no installed packages after Windows update to build 26200.8875

I have been using UniGetUI for some time now to update apps on both my Windows 11 systems, and have been entirely satisfied with it. I have just updated both systems to the latest build (a whole tranche of updates landed today, as you are no doubt aware) and UniGetUI has stopped showing...

That's right. I updated it twice today. A green update warning appeared down in my left-hand corner and I so let it do it's thing. I didn't have the previous version long enough to see the bug.

I have an interesting question.

UnigetUI works fine for me, but I noticed in the Package Managers that I have a lot missing. Does it make a difference on the programs it can update or anything else if there are additional package managers?

Yes. Package managers cover different areas of software and different software. For instance one is dedicated to powershell software, another to python pip modules, etc. Some you may or may not care about.

Curious if anyone has bundled all their currently installed packages and used that bundle to reinstall their apps on a clean system.

If that didn't work, is there one you've used that does work?

Thanks....

It might not be as easy as you make it sound.
If your system is only using UWP apps, then I would say why not.
Keep in mind that all packages would not be installed but would be ready to be installed.
You would also lose all the settings that reside in your %appdata% folder.
Then there are the %PROGRAMFILES(X86)% for older stuff as they might not be packaged.
Then there are the %PROGRAMFILES% for non-UWP.

I would go the image route, redeploy that image on the new system and then let windows look for the correct drivers for the new devices.
(I have done this actually when I updated one of my systems)
It is be messy and requires some cleanup, not for the faint of heart this.
The safe route, and the most time consuming one is a new installation.
