The <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/windows-package-manager-winget-version-1-0\/\">&#8220;Windows Package Manager&#8221;<\/a> is a command-line tool designed to make it easier and automate the process of searching, downloading, installing, upgrading, and configuring apps on your device.<\/p>\n<p>If you have ever had to install one or multiple apps, you know how time-consuming it is to find the links, download, and reinstall all your apps. Using the winget client, you can use a simple command to specify which apps you want to get. Then, the tool will find and install the latest version automatically.<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft makes the tool available through the Microsoft Store on devices running a supported version of <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/tag\/windows-10\">Windows 10<\/a> and 11. However, you can get it manually without waiting for the update by installing the latest version of the &#8220;App Installer.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The command-line tool is likely already available if you are already <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/windows-10-22h2-everything-know\/\">running Windows 10 22H2<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/windows-11-22h2-new-features\">Windows 11 22H2<\/a>. You can check by invoking the <strong>&#8220;winget&#8221;<\/strong> command in Command Prompt or PowerShell. Otherwise, <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/install-updates-manually-windows-11\/\">check for updates<\/a> first and then continue with the steps below.<\/p>\n<p>This <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/tag\/how-to\">guide<\/a> will teach you how to install the winget-CLI client on Windows 11.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"toc\">\n<li><a href=\"#install_winget_windows10_mstore\">Install winget on Windows 11 from Microsoft Store<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#install_winget_windows10_github\">Install winget on Windows 11 from GitHub<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#fix_winget\">Fix winget missing or not recognized command<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"install_winget_windows10_mstore\">Install winget on Windows 11 from Microsoft Store<\/h2>\n<p>To install the Windows Package Manager on Windows 11, use these steps:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/p\/app-installer\/9nblggh4nns1#activetab=pivot:overviewtab\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Open the <strong>App Installer<\/strong> page<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Click the <strong>Get<\/strong> button.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Click the <strong>Open Microsoft Store<\/strong> button.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Click the <b>Update<\/b>\u00a0button.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-157671\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/winget-app-installaer-windows-11.webp?resize=827%2C473&#038;quality=78&#038;strip=all&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"App Installer\" width=\"827\" height=\"473\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/winget-app-installaer-windows-11.webp?w=931&amp;quality=78&amp;strip=all&amp;ssl=1 931w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/winget-app-installaer-windows-11.webp?resize=300%2C172&amp;quality=78&amp;strip=all&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/winget-app-installaer-windows-11.webp?resize=150%2C86&amp;quality=78&amp;strip=all&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 827px) 100vw, 827px\" \/><\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Open <strong>Start<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Search for <strong>Command Prompt<\/strong> and click the top result to open the terminal.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Type the following command to confirm the Windows Package Manager is already installed and press <strong>Enter<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<pre>winget<\/pre>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-157670\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/winget-command-windows-11.webp?resize=827%2C423&#038;quality=78&#038;strip=all&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"winget command\" width=\"827\" height=\"423\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/winget-command-windows-11.webp?w=902&amp;quality=78&amp;strip=all&amp;ssl=1 902w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/winget-command-windows-11.webp?resize=300%2C153&amp;quality=78&amp;strip=all&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/winget-command-windows-11.webp?resize=150%2C77&amp;quality=78&amp;strip=all&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 827px) 100vw, 827px\" \/><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Once you complete the steps, the winget-CLI will install on the device, and you can begin <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/install-app-winget-windows-10\/\">searching and installing apps using commands<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"install_winget_windows10_github\">Install winget on Windows 11 from GitHub<\/h2>\n<p>To install winget with the offline installer without the Microsoft Store, use these steps:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/microsoft\/winget-cli\/releases\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Open the <strong>winget<\/strong> GitHub page<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Under the &#8220;Latest&#8221;
