Versie 2026.3.0 van UniGetUI is uitgekomen, met meteen een opvolger erachteraan om enkele problemen te verhelpen. Dit programma wordt tegenwoordig door Devolutions uitgegeven, bekend van onder meer Remote Desktop Manager en diverse andere beveiligingsproducten, en dient als grafische gebruikersinterface voor de bekendste softwarebeheerprogramma's, waaronder Winget, Chocolatey, Scoop, Pip en Npm. Met die packagemanagers kan software vanaf de commandline worden geïnstalleerd, bijgewerkt en verwijderd worden en UniGetUI maakt dat dus eenvoudiger. Het programma is open source, beschikbaar voor Windows, Linux en macOS, in veel talen te gebruiken waaronder in het Nederlands, heeft een donker thema en geeft notificaties als er nieuwe versies van geïnstalleerde programma's beschikbaar zijn. De changelog voor deze uitgave ziet er als volgt uit:
Devolutions UniGetUI 2026.3.0This feature release adds scheduled maintenance, selective automatic updates, full portable support, expanded shortcut management, and major reliability improvements across package managers and remote operations.
New FeaturesImprovements
- Added scheduled maintenance for update checks, automatic update installation, local backups, and cloud backups, with independent schedules, retries and timeouts.
- Added support for marking individual packages for automatic updates instead of automatically updating every package.
- Added Start Menu shortcut and folder management to the unified Manage shortcuts window, including removal, reset, relocation, post-install prompts, and command-line support.
- Added an optional Installer host column that shows each download domain and provides the full installer URL in a tooltip.
- Added configurable retention limits for timestamped local backups, with automatic removal of the oldest files.
- Added the %NAME% placeholder and a per-package subfolder style setting for creating sanitized custom installation directories.
- Added Update and Update as administrator actions to the Installed Packages page when a newer package version is available.
- Added a responsive package toolbar that moves actions into an overflow menu when the window is too narrow to display them all.
- Added warnings when an installed package version cannot be reliably verified, with explanatory tooltips in package lists and details.
Bug Fixes
- Improved package icon loading with bounded preloading and automatic retries after temporary failures.
- Improved update error messages for unavailable installers, already-current packages, and WinGet hash mismatches, including more relevant recovery guidance.
- Improved Linux compatibility by targeting a glibc 2.27 baseline so releases run on considerably older distributions.
- Migrated supported NuGet-backed package managers to the NuGet V3 API for more efficient and reliable feed access.
Security
- Fixed WinGet package detection, search, and update checks on Windows installations using non-English display languages.
- Fixed WinGet detection when its executable is not available through the system path by locating App Installer through Windows.
- Fixed updates being under-reported during the first scan by refreshing the WinGet catalog snapshot when its source index changes.
- Fixed version comparisons for packages that use underscores in build revisions, including Homebrew versions such as 18.4_1.
- Fixed PowerShell 5.x module operations incorrectly reporting success after non-terminating errors.
- Fixed Cargo package listings showing blank crate names or silently omitting entries.
- Fixed Scoop package listings hanging when commands produced excessive error output or stopped responding.
- Fixed shortcut removal failures by elevating when required and applying deletions as a single operation.
- Fixed package-manager dependency installations being accepted without verifying that the required tool was actually installed.
- Fixed Cargo-installed dependencies being missed when they were available in standard Cargo directories but not on the system path.
- Hardened PowerShell-based package operations against command injection by validating package values, rejecting shell metacharacters, and passing arguments as data.
- Hardened settings imports by rejecting unknown or unsafe names and preventing secure-settings paths from escaping their intended directory.
