WinGet Configure Samples

List.md

Sample configuration.dsc.yaml files

These samples require the experimental configuration feature to be enabled. WinGet 1.5.863-preview or newer is required.

Add the following to your settings.json to enable this feature:

    "experimentalFeatures": {"dependencies": true, 
        "configuration": true
    }

winget configure show

Run winget configure show <path to *.dsc.yaml> to see the contents of the configuration.

winget configure

Run winget configure show <path to *.dsc.yaml> to run a configuration.

Samples

These need to be run as administrator. They demonstrate the "assert" section of configuration and are contrived examples to set and remove a machine scoped environment variable after asserting the presence or absence of the variable.

• setenvironment.dsc.yaml
• removeenvironment.dsc.yaml

Note: Some of the DSC resources may not be published to the PowerShell Gallery yet.
