Judy Olo 🚫⚠️kakistocracy🌊<p>Well, <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/WasteManagement" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WasteManagement</span></a> went off the deep end. They started a few months ago skipping Tuesdays. Now they are skipping entire weeks. Maybe they're too busy with golf tournaments? So, called <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Winget" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Winget</span></a> yesterday and boom! They were out this morning 6am and even left a new container. My garbage is gone!!😊</p>

Got apps installed from all over the place on your Windows PC? Struggle to remember where they all came from and how to update them all? It's time to get organized! I'm sharing a hidden gem that changed how I manage apps – WingetUI 🙌

What exactly is WingetUI? It's a super user-friendly way to install, update, and even uninstall Windows apps – right from one spot! No more hunting around or trying to remember where each app came from. 👍 But the best part? It's lightning fast ⚡

Say goodbye to tedious updates and installs. I made a quick video guide to show you just how simple it is: buff.ly/49wqnEV

WingetUI gets rid of the hassle and gives you time back in your day. 👏 Ready to streamline your app experience? Give WingetUI a try and let me know what you think!
What other Windows tips or tricks should I cover next? 👇

If you are setting up a new Windows machine and doing that thing of installing all your old software by going to all the sites and downloading installers, don't do that. Instead use WingetUI. So, so good. A huge timesaver. And it's not a horrible app store thing like Microsoft Store, either.

(Yes I know Linux users have had GUI package managers for years. Now folk stuck on Windows have one too, based on WinGet, which is pretty cool)
