To the folks looking to exclude app from update during a upgrade --all

winget pin add -id <id>

this will exclude the app from upgrade --all

This is the first time I heard this and this is the perfect way to find the rest of them, when I used upgrade, it told me I got 11 need to be update including Microsoft stuffs, Epic games, EA app and others, once you install one of these, it will tell you how many Mbs you need

This is one of those I rarely use as I use Chocolatey, I wasn't aware it can do batch upgrades though so I will end up using it more

I learned of winget recently that windows got it OMG i love it

If you are getting the error: "Package agreements were not agreed to. Operation cancelled." Then run winget upgrade --all --accept-package-agreements --accept-source-agreements

[wintrywind]

you can easily prevent updates on specific app with the pin command

How can I use WINGET to install/uninstall apps on multiple systems with SCCM?

[ItsAlito]

How do you set a powershell background?

[Matthew_A_N]

How do people get this to work in system context. The cmdlet not recognized error comes up. I manually run from win app dir to get around this but upgrades dont work. it seems to only work in user context with manual elevation provided. Making this unusable for automated scripts in intune? If thats the case I don't see much use for this

Is the video older than this upload?
Also using the "-id" part isn't really needed.
