Looking for a hassle-free and convenient way to install all your desired software on your computer? In a previous article, we introduced you to Winget, a package manager for Windows 10 and Windows 11 that enables you to download, install, and update your preferred applications. However, Winget’s command-line interface may prove challenging for some users who are not familiar with this tool. In this regard, we are thrilled to introduce WiGui, a free and open-source software that provides a user-friendly graphical interface to browse, download, and install all your software simultaneously using Winget. Keep reading this article to discover more about this software and how it operates.
Software to download, install and update your applications on Windows
Undeniably, installing multiple applications on a Windows computer can be a monotonous and time-consuming task. Fortunately, today, we have simple solutions like WiGui that can ease your burden.
WiGui is a graphical interface built on the Winget tool that lets you install multiple programs simultaneously and in just a few clicks. Additionally, WiGui can automatically update your already installed software, saving you from the hassle of constantly checking for updates. However, to avail this feature, you need to install the WAU tool from the WiGui settings. But fret not, as this operation requires only two clicks.
Besides the simultaneous installation of several applications, WiGui also allows for batch uninstallation of programs. This feature comes in handy if you need to free up disk space quickly or if you want to remove multiple programs simultaneously.
All in all, WiGui is a handy and efficient tool that simplifies the installation and management of your applications on Windows. Now, let’s delve into how to use it.
How to use WiGui?
WiGui is a very easy-to-use program. Here are the steps to follow:
1. Start by downloading the latest version of WiGui from the GitHub platform. Note that this is a portable program. Therefore, it does not require any installation on your computer.
2. Then run the software.
3. Once WiGui is running, enter the name of the application you want to install in the search bar and click ” Search “.
4. Select the application from the list and add it to the list by clicking on the ” Add to List ” button.
5. Once your list is complete, click on “ Install ” to start installing the programs.
Excellent! Now you have learned how to install multiple applications simultaneously using WiGui. It’s worth noting that you can save the list of applications to a file. This can come in handy when you need to install the same programs on multiple computers without recreating the list on each machine.
Another intriguing feature of WiGui is its ability to batch uninstall applications. To do this, click on the “List installed” button to view the list of applications installed on your computer. Then, select the programs you wish to uninstall (use CTRL+left-click to select multiple), and click the “Uninstall” button to remove the selected programs.
Lastly, from the “Configure WAU” tab, you can install and configure the WAU tool, which automatically updates the applications installed on your computer. You can choose the frequency at which the program checks for new updates (daily, weekly, monthly, etc.).
