* Bumped the winget version to 1.28 to match the package version.
* Additional [options for limiting the size of log files](https://github.com/microsoft/winget-cli/blob/master/doc/Settings.md#file).
# Feature: 'source edit' # New Feature: 'source edit' New feature that adds an 'edit' subcommand to the 'source' command. This can be used to set an explicit source to be implicit and vice-versa. For example, with this feature you can make the 'winget-font' source an implicit source instead of explicit source.
To use the feature, try `winget source edit winget-font` to set the Explicit state to the default.
# New Experimental Feature: 'listDetails'
The new experimental feature `listDetails` enables a new option for the `list` command, `--details`. When supplied, the output is no longer a table view of the results but is instead a series of `show` like outputs drawing data from the installed item.
An example output for a single installed package is: ```PowerShell > wingetdev list Microsoft.VisualStudio.2022.Enterprise --details Visual Studio Enterprise 2022 [Microsoft.VisualStudio.2022.Enterprise] Version: 17.14.21 (November 2025) Publisher: Microsoft Corporation Local Identifier: ARP\Machine\X86\875fed29 Product Code: 875fed29 Installer Category: exe Installed Scope: Machine Installed Location: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Enterprise Available Upgrades: winget [17.14.23] ```
If sixels are enabled and supported by the terminal, an icon for the installed package will be shown.
To enable this feature, add the 'listDetails' experimental feature to your settings. ``` "experimentalFeatures": { "listDetails": true }, ```
## Bug Fixes * Portable Packages now use the correct directory separators regardless of which convention is used in the manifest * `--suppress-initial-details` now works with `winget configure test` Expand Down
