WingetUI is an application whose main goal is to create an intuitive GUI for the most common CLI package managers for Windows 10 and Windows 11, such as Winget, Scoop and Chocolatey. With WingetUI, you"ll be able to download, install, update and uninstall any software that"s published on the supported package managers — and so much more.
