There are multiple ways to install UniGetUI — choose whichever one you prefer!
UniGetUI is primarily built for Windows. The Microsoft Store is the recommended installation method, but direct installer and package-manager options are also available.
UniGetUI.Installer.exe is the legacy/default x64 installer alias; use the explicit architecture downloads if needed.
| Architecture | Installer | Portable .zip |
|---|---|---|
| x64 | UniGetUI.Installer.x64.exe (default x64 alias) | UniGetUI.x64.zip |
| arm64 | UniGetUI.Installer.arm64.exe | UniGetUI.arm64.zip |
winget install --exact --id Devolutions.UniGetUI --source winget
scoop bucket add extras
scoop install extras/unigetui
choco install unigetuimacOS builds are available from GitHub Releases. Use the .dmg for the standard installer experience, or the .tar.gz archive for a portable app bundle.
| Architecture | .dmg |
.tar.gz |
|---|---|---|
| Apple silicon (arm64) | UniGetUI.macos-arm64.dmg | UniGetUI.macos-arm64.tar.gz |
| Intel (x64) | UniGetUI.macos-x64.dmg | UniGetUI.macos-x64.tar.gz |
Linux builds are available from GitHub Releases. Use the .deb package for Debian/Ubuntu-based distributions, the .rpm package for Fedora/RHEL-based distributions, or the .tar.gz archive for a portable build.
| Architecture | .deb |
.rpm |
.tar.gz |
|---|---|---|---|
| x64 | Download | Download | Download |
| arm64 | Download | Download | Download |
Install the package that matches your distribution and architecture:
# Debian/Ubuntu-based distributions
sudo apt install ./UniGetUI.linux-x64.deb
# Fedora/RHEL-based distributions
sudo dnf install ./UniGetUI.linux-x64.rpm
# Portable archive
tar -xzf UniGetUI.linux-x64.tar.gz
./UniGetUIReplace x64 with arm64 in the file name when using the arm64 build.
UniGetUI has a built-in autoupdater. On Windows, it can also be updated like any other package within UniGetUI when installed through WinGet, Scoop, or Chocolatey.
- Install, update, and remove software from your system easily at one click: UniGetUI combines packages from the most used package managers for your platform, including WinGet, Chocolatey, Scoop, Homebrew, APT, DNF, Pacman, Flatpak, Snap, Pip, npm, Bun, and .NET Tool.
- Discover new packages and filter them to easily find the package you want.
- View detailed metadata about any package before installing it. Get the direct download URL or the name of the publisher, as well as the size of the download.
- Easily bulk-install, update, or uninstall multiple packages at once selecting multiple packages before performing an operation
- Automatically update packages, or be notified when updates become available. Skip versions or completely ignore updates on a per-package basis.
- The system tray icon will also show the available updates and installed packages where supported, to efficiently update a program or remove a package from your system.
- Easily customize how and where packages are installed. Select different installation options and switches for each package. Install an older version or force a specific architecture where supported. [But don't worry, those options will be saved for future updates for this package*]
- Share packages with your friends using generated package links.
- Export custom lists of packages to then import them to another machine and install those packages with previously specified, custom installation parameters. Setting up machines or configuring a specific software setup has never been easier.
- Backup your packages to a local file to easily recover your setup in a matter of seconds when migrating to a new machine*
NOTE: All package managers do support basic install, update, and uninstall processes, as well as checking for updates, finding new packages, and retrieving details from a package.
UniGetUI loads package managers based on the current platform. Windows builds include WinGet, Scoop, Chocolatey, Windows PowerShell, PowerShell 7, npm, Bun, pip, Cargo, .NET Tool, and vcpkg. macOS and Linux builds include Homebrew, PowerShell 7, npm, Bun, pip, Cargo, .NET Tool, and vcpkg; Linux builds also include distro-aware support for APT, DNF, Pacman, Snap, and Flatpak where applicable.
✅: Supported on UniGetUI
☑️: Not directly supported but can be easily achieved
❌: Not supported by the Package Manager

Q: I am unable to install or upgrade a specific Winget package! What should I do?
A: This is likely an issue with Winget rather than UniGetUI.
Please check if it's possible to install/upgrade the package through PowerShell or the Command Prompt by using the commands winget upgrade or winget install, depending on the situation (for example: winget upgrade --id Microsoft.PowerToys).
If this doesn't work, consider asking for help at Winget's project page.
Q: The name of a package is trimmed with ellipsis — how do I see its full name/id?
A: This is a known limitation of Winget.
For more details, see this issue: microsoft/winget-cli#2603.
Q: My antivirus is telling me that UniGetUI is a virus! / My browser is blocking the download of UniGetUI!
A: A common reason apps (i.e., executables) get blocked and/or detected as a virus — even when there's nothing malicious about them, like in the case of UniGetUI — is because a relatively large amount of people are not using them.
Combine that with the fact that you might be downloading something recently released, and blocking unknown apps is in many cases a good precaution to take to prevent actual malware.
Since UniGetUI is open source and safe to use, whitelist the app in the settings of your antivirus/browser.
Q: Are packages from third-party package managers safe?
A: UniGetUI and the package-manager maintainers aren't responsible for every package available for download. Packages are provided by third parties and can theoretically be compromised, regardless of whether they come from WinGet, Scoop, Chocolatey, Homebrew, APT, DNF, Pacman, Flatpak, Snap, or another source.
Some package managers and repositories implement checks to mitigate the risks of downloading malware. Even so, it's recommended that you only download software from trusted publishers.
