Microsoft just released their new package manager for Windows, called “winget”.
While trying it out, I noticed it always offered an update for GPU-Z, even though I’m already on the latest version.
This is because GPU-Z doesn’t set its version number in the Windows “Add/Remove Program” entry (the list of programs where you can uninstall them from).
Because of this, winget doesn’t actually know which GPU-Z version is installed, displays Unknown version and always offers an update when running winget upgrade.
Is there a way to fix this issue and implement this tiny change so it plays nice with winget?
Thank you!
