Same here.

Same bro

I have issue with winget too. I have this windows since 2022 and winget was working fine. Suddenly i installed windows 11 version 23H2 22631 and winget isn't recognized as term.

Same here. Requirements / versions for winget keep changing.
I tried my own scripts. In the end I went for a script from PSGallery.

This works for me:

# Quick test using Winget-Install from PSGallery  
# NuGet is required 
Install-PackageProvider -Name NuGet -MinimumVersion 2.8.5.201 -Force
# Install latest install script
Install-Module -Name Winget-Install -Force -AllowClobber -Repository PSGallery
# Call the script
&"C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Scripts\winget-install.ps1"

Now winutil is happy with the latest version of winget.
