### Use winget to install WAU
The following command will install WAU through winget itself in the newest version available.

```
winget install Romanitho.Winget-AutoUpdate
```

You can use [Winget-Install](https://github.com/Romanitho/Winget-Install) to deploy the package for example in Intune:

The thing is, I will not maintain that repo anymore, as winget-install is part of WAU now.

Am I wrong, but right now, not everything has been moved from winget-install to WAU, right?
"(Will be part of WAU - Work in progress)".

Therefore doesnt it make sense to start like this and then change the README again once everything has merged to WAU?

But of course, I can remove that part if you want to.

The script at Winget-Install.ps1 is part of WAU and is maintained here.

The main goal of this script is to install WAU and use it as a dependency for all your Winget packages. This way, you can create empty packages with the following command: "%systemroot%\sysnative\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe" -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File "C:\Program Files\Winget-AutoUpdate\Winget-Install.ps1" -AppIDs Adobe.Acrobat.Reader.64-bit

This way, Mods and stuff are also applied.

But i'm open to have a standalone repo with that. But double repo to maintain 😅

Thanks understood. Maybe you should then archive your old repo and make a link to WAU and the script there. For example I am using winget-install and WAU since your early days and I always thought that this is still WIP, havent noticed that Winget-install is already completly obsolete.

For me personally, those are two completely different things (WAU vs. winget-install) as we dont install apps with WAU, WAU is just for updating? But in the end it is how you want to handle your tools :) Have a look at the latest commit, I hope thats fine.

Until now my package at Microsoft hasnt been approved yet.

```
"%systemroot%\sysnative\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe" -noprofile -executionpolicy bypass -file winget-install.ps1 -AppIDs "Romanitho.Winget-AutoUpdate --scope machine --override \"/qn RUN_WAU=YES USERCONTEXT=1 STARTMENUSHORTCUT=1 NOTIFICATIONLEVEL=SuccessOnly UPDATESINTERVAL=Daily""
