Windows 10: Accidentally hit lowercase y trying to install an app through winget. Seems to be in...

Unfortunately Samsung hides the download button for Samsung Notes on the microsoft store but it's possible to download it through a command prompt. Everything worked fine but when prompted to accept or decline the terms [Y]/[N] I entered lowercase y. Now I seem unable to uninstall or reinstall the app. Any way to reset it so I can accept the terms?

winget

Go to Settings > Apps > Apps & features then, in the right-hand pane, click on the link for Manage app execution aliases.

If the winget client has installed properly then you should see this:





If you don't see this then either the installer hasn't added itself to the PATH environment variable or you haven't signed out/signed in (or both... there are issues reported with this first release).

Try installing it again:

https://github.com/microsoft/winget-...bwe.appxbundle

You should see this:





If it installs successfully then you should see this:





In a console (PowerShell or CMD), the command winget list should result in something like this:





Hope this helps...

 

Problems updating Google Chrome with Winget (App installer)

I've had this problem long since I learned about winget. It is one of the essential tools I use to update my apps to their latest version. The only problem with winget is that it does not upgrade Google Chrome, even when it appears in the list of available upgrades.



I tried to download the Google Chrome package individually and this is what appears after the command is executed:




I tried uninstalling and re-installing the winget package from the official GitHub page, but it didn't resolve the issue. Please suggest me the ways to overcome this problem. Thanks in advance!

 

Winget gives "No installed package found matching input criteria." error when I try to update my applications.

When I try to use winget to update my packages, this happens:

PS C:\Users\ASUS> winget upgrade --all

No installed package found matching input criteria.

I tried the only fix on the internet and this happens when I use it (with admin privileges):

PS C:\Users\ASUS> winget source reset --force

Resetting all sources...Done

PS C:\Users\ASUS> winget upgrade --all

The `msstore` source requires that you view the following agreements before using. Terms of Transaction: https://aka.ms/microsoft-store-terms-of-transaction The source requires the current machine's 2-letter geographic region to be sent to the backend service to function properly (ex. "US"). Do you agree to all the source agreements terms? [Y] Yes [N] No: Y

No installed package found matching input criteria.

Only winget upgrade outputs this:

PS C:\Users\ASUS> winget upgrade
No installed package found matching input criteria.

This problem started occurring after I made a system reset keeping personal files and deleting all applications from settings.

My operating system is up-to-date, rebooting didn't work.

winget list shows my installed applications perfectly fine.

No other problems with winget other than updating.
