Winget to the rescue
Written on September 27, 2022
I’m terrible at updating the various applications, frameworks and packages that are installed on my development machines.
As such I was pretty excited to discover the Winget application which acts as an npm style package manager for my Windows machine - once installed, run the following to get a list of the applications that have updates available for them:
winget upgrade
Then either manually update the relevant applications or do it in-place using:
winget upgrade -e 'Id'
Where 'Id'
is the Id as listed by the previous command. See the documentation for more commands.
