I like the built-in WordPress block, “Details” which does the same thing as “Lightweight Accordion” which comes from some plugin, such as used here (at time of publishing/ article updating).

Software Package Managers – Winget | Apt | Pacman | choco
I wouldn’t have agreed years ago, but I’ve come to believe that a system is most stable when its native package manager utility is used primarily, if not exclusively for installation and maintenance of all software installed on the system.

When I find I feel uncomfortable using a tool or practice in my daily work, I’m in the habit of putting that tool into use more often, so I’m sure to earn more practice with it. And so on. This is an example of my Obsession over that sort of thing. I don’t really know how to manipulate Winget. I’m much better with apt, apt-get, aptitude, and even Pacman by now.
Illustrated on the PowerShell command line below, you’ll see I use traditional tactics to try to find the correct identifier (name) for the “Firefox Developer” edition which wants to launch on this system, instead of the Firefox Nightly, as I desired today.
Let’s see what I encounter using grep to look for parts of the desired titles. I tried a name from the list of known applications, Pandora, to verify that I was in fact using the tool correctly.
PS C:\Users\jsaba> winget list | grep fire3 PS C:\Users\jsaba> winget list | grep fire PS C:\Users\jsaba> winget list | grep Pandora Pandora MSIX\PandoraMediaInc.29680B314EFC2_15.0.… 15.0.3.0 PS C:\Users\jsaba> winget list | grep ozilla Firefox Developer Edition (x64 en-US) Mozilla.Firefox.DeveloperEdition 134.0 winget Firefox Developer Edition (x64 en-US) Mozilla.Firefox.DeveloperEdition 127.0 winget Mozilla Maintenance Service ARP\Machine\X64\MozillaMaintenanceService 127.0 PS C:\Users\jsaba> winget uninstall "Firefox Developer Edition" No installed package found matching input criteria. PS C:\Users\jsaba> winget uninstall "Firefox Developer Edition*" No installed package found matching input criteria. PS C:\Users\jsaba> winget uninstall "Firefox Developer Edition (x64 en-US)" Multiple versions of this package are installed. Either refine the search, pass the `--version` argument to select one, or pass the `--all-versions` flag to uninstall all of them. PS C:\Users\jsaba> winget uninstall "Firefox Developer Edition (x64 en-US)" --all-versions (1/2) Found Firefox Developer Edition (x64 en-US) [Mozilla.Firefox.DeveloperEdition] Starting package uninstall... Successfully uninstalled (2/2) Found Firefox Developer Edition (x64 en-US) [Mozilla.Firefox.DeveloperEdition] Starting package uninstall... Successfully uninstalled PS C:\Users\jsaba>
Note: It would have saved time had I simply known, and used the “ID” column (e.g.
Mozilla.Firefox.DeveloperEdition
), recognizable by one complete character string with at least “one dot”. For example, until i used the “--all-versions
” option, Winget kept returning zero results!Strict results may be familiar to you from using Apt, or Pacman where partial matches are typically not enabled by default.
