    Winget Install Problem


    Hi everyone,In Uniget, I am getting a Microsoft.WinGet.Client update. It won't install in Uniget. On my desktop PC I got it updated in PowerShell with the command "Install-Module -Name Microsoft.WinGet.Client".On my other machine, it's not that simple. I get the output from the command detailed in the image. Can anyone help? I am totally confused.Thanks.

    :)

    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!

  3. Problems updating Google Chrome with Winget (App installer)

    Hi, I'm Robinson, and I’m happy to help you today.

    I found this thread on the Winget Github about this problem and this happens when the installer format changes from one type to another. It could be going from MSIX to MSI, EXE to MSI, or any other installer format transition.

    In this case, you can use the command "winget show Google.Chrome -s winget" o get the URL to the installer and then run the command "winget install <URL installer>".

    You can the entire thread at this link.

    Winget Install Problem

    I need a script to SILENTLY install winget

    That command works for installing apps from winget. What I wanna know is how to install Winget itself silently, not the apps. The basic need of this script is to run a script on a complete default Windows installation and the script install winget to the latest version, install some apps that I need, than verify for updates from microsoft, installs all available updates, restart if needed, and that's it. I could find all the steps, except for installing winget itself silently. Always prompt a interface to click update and I need to do it silently.
