Can't install from winget source
I'm trying to install this using winget.
Administrator@COMPUTER c:\
# winget search explorerpatcher
Failed in attempting to update the source: winget

It shows as available, but when I try install it fails as follows:
Administrator@COMPUTER c:\
# winget install --id valinet.ExplorerPatcher --scope machine --verbose-logs --accept-package-agreements --locale "en-US"

No applicable installer found; see logs for more details.

I created a registry key per this post because there are certificates issues:
Administrator@COMPUTER c:\
# REG QUERY HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\AppInstaller
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\AppInstaller
EnableBypassCertificatePinningForMicrosoftStore REG_DWORD 0x1
This fixed the cert issue, but not the source issue.
Any ideas?
are you doing deployments with this?
no, just trying to install on my own PC
So, no AD, no GPOs, just me and my machine...which I own.
This might be the reason why if they used a pre-release: https://github.com/valinet/ExplorerPatcher/issues/2873
I would bring this up with winget.
For now, you could just download it from here instead: https://github.com/valinet/ExplorerPatcher/releases/tag/22621.2861.62.2_9b68cc0
