In this video I cover how to install and use Winget, the Microsoft Windows Package Manager on Windows 11.

Unlike Linux which traditionally uses a package manager to install and remove software, or packages from a system, Windows traditionally has relied on third parties to create their own installation packages.
Step 1. How To Install Winget.
Assuming that you are running either Windows 11 or the last two releases of Windows 10, then Winget will already be preinstalled as part of the App Installer.
However, if App Installer is not installed, then simply install it from the Microsoft Store.
Step 2. Using Winget Commands.
Winget has multiple commands you can run.

For example, to install Firefox, type the following command:
winget install Mozilla.Firefox
You will have to confirm a UAC prompt, and depending on the application, there may be some additional dialogue windows, but once the process is finished, the application will now be installed.
Alternatively, to uninstall Firefox, you would use this command:
winget uninstall Mozilla.Firefox
Once again, you will have to confirm a UAC prompt, and once the process is finished, the application will now be uninstalled.
To list all installed packages on a system, type the following command:
winget list
This will return a list of all software installed on your system, and any items with winget as the Source can be updated using Winget.
It will also list the current version installed, and whether there is an updated version that can be installed.
Finally to update all software supported by Winget, type the following command:
winget upgrade --all
Although it will skip updating any applications that are currently running.
Step 3. A GUI Interface For Winget.

Winstall is a website that keeps track of all software supported by Winget and provides you with the command to install said software.
For example, to install OBS, I would navigate to the page, find the Winget command and run it using either PowerShell or CMD.
The website also allows you to create scripts to bulk install software in a comparable manner to a service such as Ninite.
