Winget-AutoUpdate (WAU) is a Windows application that uses the Winget package manager to automatically update installed apps daily in system context, with toast notifications to connected users. It supports allowlist/blocklist control, configurable update frequency, and is installed via an MSI.
Use cases
- automatically keep all Windows apps up to date via winget
- update apps as SYSTEM without user interaction
- exclude specific apps from auto-updates with a blocklist
- only auto-update a curated set of apps with an allowlist
- notify users when app updates are installed
- deploy managed app updates across Windows machines
When to choose
- you manage Windows machines and want hands-off winget-based app updates
- you need updates to run in system context with user notifications
- you want allowlist/blocklist control over which apps get updated
When to avoid
- you are not on Windows or don't use winget
- you need per-user store app or non-winget package management
- you require centralized fleet reporting rather than local updates
