Windows Package Manager 1.28.100-preview

[florelis]

This is a preview build of WinGet for those interested in trying out upcoming features and fixes. While it has had some use and should be free of major issues, it may have bugs or usability problems. If you find any, 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.

Experimental Feature: 'sourceEdit'

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 enable this feature, add the 'sourceEdit' experimental feature to your settings.

"experimentalFeatures": {
    "sourceEdit": true
},

To use the feature, try winget source edit winget-font to set the Explicit state to the default.

Bug Fixes

• Portable Packages now use the correct directory separators regardless of which convention is used in the manifest
• --suppress-initial-details now works with winget configure test
• --suppress-initial-details no longer requires --accept-configuration-agreements
• Corrected property of Font experimental feature to accurately reflect fonts as the required setting value
