[aherrick]

as an update they all seem to fail with this parm --disable-interactivity is there a way to work around it?

[SimonCropp]

what version of winget do u have?

[aherrick]

@SimonCropp looks like 1.2.10691 - its whatever came with this version of windows 11 i haven't updated anything other than generic windows updates - is there a prereq to force update of winget to a newer version?

[SimonCropp]

yeah it turns out i rely on some features in newer versions. i have deployed a new version of WinDebloat that checks the version of winget and prompts people to update

[aherrick]

after updating "App Installer" from the Windows Store it worked great. thanks!
