Back in July last year, the WingetUI received a major update that brought a redesigned UI and a new name, "UniGetUI;" the author explained why the renaming was necessary.
Today, the utility has received its latest pre-release update, and it brings multiple improvements related to downloading and installing packages, including multiple simultaneous downloads and the addition of a downloading option simply by right-clicking a package.
Alongside that, an issue, bugging the uninstallation of a package has been fixed. The full changelog is given below:
General changes
- Downloading packages is now easier:
- Better download experience: Downloads will show as an install/download operation, on the bottom of the window
- Multiple downloads can be performed at the same time
- Packages can be downloaded by right-clicking them -> Download installer, no need to open package details
- UniGetUI can work as a portable app, storing settings alongside the executable file
- This will be effective if UniGetUI is installed in "Portable" mode. A "Portable" installation will not interfiere with a "Regular" installation.
- Uninstall package, then [Update/Reinstall] work again (they were broken in 3.1.6-beta1)
- Lots of bugfixes and internal improvements.
