github WinGet:
This is a release candidate of Windows Package Manager v1.28. If you find any bugs or problems, please help us out by filing an issue.
New in v1.28
- Bumped the winget version to 1.28 to match the package version.
- Additional options for limiting the size of log files.
New Feature: 'source edit'
New feature that adds an 'edit' subcommand to the 'source' command. This can be used to set an explicit source to be implicit and vice-versa. For example, with this feature you can make the 'winget-font' source an implicit source instead of explicit source.To use the feature, try winget source edit winget-font to set the Explicit state to the default.
New Feature: 'list --details'
The new feature enables a new option for the list command, --details. When supplied, the output is no longer a table view of the results but is instead a series of show like outputs drawing data from the installed item.An example output for a single installed package is:
Code:
> wingetdev list Microsoft.VisualStudio.2022.Enterprise --details
