Deployment Method:

NOTE

This applies to both open source and commercial editions of Chocolatey.

1. Enter Your Internal Repository Url

(this should look similar to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/)


2. Setup Your Environment

1. Ensure you are set for organizational deployment

Please see the organizational deployment guide

2. Get the package into your environment

  • Open Source or Commercial:
    • Proxy Repository - Create a proxy nuget repository on Nexus, Artifactory Pro, or a proxy Chocolatey repository on ProGet. Point your upstream to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/. Packages cache on first access automatically. Make sure your choco clients are using your proxy repository as a source and NOT the default community repository. See source command for more information.
    • You can also just download the package and push it to a repository Download

3. Copy Your Script

choco upgrade winget-cli -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" [other options]

See options you can pass to upgrade.

See best practices for scripting.

Add this to a PowerShell script or use a Batch script with tools and in places where you are calling directly to Chocolatey. If you are integrating, keep in mind enhanced exit codes.

If you do use a PowerShell script, use the following to ensure bad exit codes are shown as failures:


choco upgrade winget-cli -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" 
$exitCode = $LASTEXITCODE

Write-Verbose "Exit code was $exitCode"
$validExitCodes = @(0, 1605, 1614, 1641, 3010)
if ($validExitCodes -contains $exitCode) {
  Exit 0
}

Exit $exitCode

Package Approved

Description

The winget command line tool enables users to discover, install, upgrade, remove and configure applications on Windows 10 and Windows 11 computers. This tool is the client interface to the Windows Package Manager service.

Notes:

  • WinGet-CLI requires at least Windows 10 version 1809 (build 17763). See https://github.com/microsoft/winget-cli#installing-the-client for more information.
  • WinGet-CLI requires 'Microsoft.UI.Xaml.2.7' Appx package and does not work if a later (2.8+) version only is installed. The Chocolatey package takes care of this by adding the microsoft-ui-xaml-2-7 as a dependency.
  • This is an automatically updated package. If you find it is out-of-date by more than a week, please contact the maintainer(s), to let the know using the 'Package Source' link on the package page and raising an issue.
  • If you find the package has issues (for software issues, please contact the vendor / author), please contact the maintainer(s), to let the know using the 'Package Source' link on the package page and raising an issue.

In cases where actual malware is found, the packages are subject to removal. Software sometimes has false positives. Moderators do not necessarily validate the safety of the underlying software, only that a package retrieves software from the official distribution point and/or validate embedded software against official distribution point (where distribution rights allow redistribution).

Chocolatey Pro provides runtime protection from possible malware.

This release represents our first stable Windows Package Manager 1.9 build for Windows 10 (1809+), and Windows 11.

This release includes the ability to enable experimental features unless blocked by Group Policy Objects (GPO)


Sixel support is here to display icons and a new progress visualization. To try out this new feature, you must be using a terminal that supports sixels, such as the latest Windows Terminal Preview build. To enable this feature, include the following snipping in your settings file:

{
  "$schema": "https://aka.ms/winget-settings.schema.json",
  "visual": {
    "enableSixels": true,
    "progressBar": "sixel"
  }
}

WinGet Configuration files with DSC Resources requiring elevation can now be handled more gracefully. The "Configure Self Elevation" experimental feature can be enabled with the following snippet in your settings file:

{
  "$schema": "https://aka.ms/winget-settings.schema.json",
  "experimentalFeatures": {
    "configureSelfElevate": true
  }
}

Use "securityContext: elevated" under "directives:" for any resources requiring administrator. WinGet will trigger a single User Account Control (UAC) prompt when the configuration is run under user context. Resources requiring elevation are run elevated, and the rest are run in user context. The following example shows how the .NET Tutorial - Hello World in 5 minutes will be updated to provide a better user experience.
