I also had issues with IWS requests for dling files constantly failing, idk if it is related or if web 3.0 got rid of any website having direct downloads to the files (even right clicking copy link url doesn't work anymore - still redirects before actual download( i uninstalled msys2 python and ruby among a number of other programs (discord as well) but the issue still persists for cmd only.

Idk what could be causing it, i know msys2 ruby and python all had environmental paths but i made sure the winget was (as mentioned in the aforementioned thread) added to that list and on top, but that didn't make a difference.
Cmd c powershell install#
My secondary computer set up right next to it (which i had done the install around the same time as my current computer) has both ps and cmd working with winget.Ĭmd on that machine also defaults to system32 winget (it appears) but no issue. I then ran apt install with ps and directed it to where i downloaded on the root of c and like magic powershell winget now works, but cmd is not working.

Cmd c powershell windows#
i tried the apt- install ps command but it wouldn't work/ refused to install/ said errors with permissionsĪfter copying the winget files that were not completely locked down, i booted into my original windows install and opened powershell, instead of saying "you don't have permission to access this app" in a uac style pop-up, or a variation of "this doesn't exist" it said "you must reinstall or fix".
Cmd c powershell full#
What happens if you execute it with the full path, like %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\WindowsApps\winget.exe?.

If you do dir %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\WindowsApps, do you see winget.exe there?.If you do echo %PATH%, do you see C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps in there? If you don't, the issue may be that something is overwriting the %PATH%, preventing CMD from finding winget.exe.Once we know what it was, we may be able to find a solution. I don't know what the issue is, so here are a couple of ideas for diagnosing where the error is.
