github WinGet:
This is a preview build of WinGet for those interested in trying out upcoming features and fixes. While it has had some use and should be free of major issues, it may have bugs or usability problems. If you find any, please help us out by filing an issue.
New in v1.12
- MCP server available; run winget mcp for assistance on configuring your client.
- App Installer now uses WinUI 3. The package dependency on WinUI 2 has been replaced by a dependency on the Windows App Runtime 1.8.
- Manifest schema and validation updated to v1.12. This version update adds "Font" as an InstallerType and NestedInstallerType.
Bug Fixes
- Manifest validation no longer fails using UTF-8 BOM encoding when the schema header is on the first line
Experimental Features
