Winget Command

[F.Rafuna]

Hello dear Community,

I have the following problem: I can’t use the Win-Get command on the XDR terminal in Cortex. Can someone help me to make this command executable on the PowerShell XDR terminal.

Hi @F.Rafuna, thanks for reaching us using the LiveCommunity.

Looks like the "winget" app command is not configured as a system path environmental variable. The live terminal runs as SYSTEM, and that's why it is not found.

You can move to the winget.exe folder using "cd" and then run the winget.exe from there, and if needed you can check the Microsoft documentation to add it as a full system env variable. This same thing can happen with some other "new" Windows 10-11 commands.

If this post answers your question, please mark it as the solution.

Hi 
I am trying to install software with the winget command in the remote terminal and it is not allowed, I tried to allocate winget.exe to c:\windows\system32 but it is not allowed
while installing any program with winget directly on localhost is possible
thnx

Hi @F.Rafuna

WinGet should be located somewhere under "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps". As mentioned previously this path is not configured as a system path environmental variable.

Try to allocate the file and run it afterwards:
