What is WinGet?

WinGet

WinGet is a tiny but powerful download manager that can get big jobs done way faster than other tools out there. If you’re tired of waiting ages for files to download, this might just be what you need.

Quick Installation and Easy Interface

Getting started with WinGet is super easy. After a quick installation, you’ll see a user-friendly interface that makes it simple to navigate. It even integrates right into your web browser, so you don’t have to worry about pasting links manually. Just keep in mind that this feature only works with Internet Explorer.

Fast Downloads for Big Files

The cool part? You just enter the URL and where you want to save the file, and off it goes! We tested it by downloading a file that was 1.44GB. WinGet zipped through it in about ten minutes, while other download managers took over twenty minutes! If you're downloading large files often, WinGet really shines here.

Keep Track of Your Downloads

You won’t see how long the download has been running, but you can check the speed and when it’s done. Plus, all your downloads are saved in the History section so you can look back at them anytime.

Customize Your Settings

Diving into the Settings menu lets you customize a bunch of things! You can list file types for automatic downloads, pick your preferred language, tweak connection settings like max simultaneous downloads or limit connection speed, and even add proxy settings if needed.

Password Management and More Features

If you frequently download from certain servers, WinGet lets you save usernames and passwords for easy access. Want your computer to shut down after completing downloads? No problem! You can also set it up to disconnect from the Internet when tasks finish or use a specific virus scanner to check your files.

A Couple of Minor Issues

The only hiccup we found is that there’s a slight delay when double-clicking on files—WinGet freezes for a few seconds while loading them. But don’t worry; it doesn’t use much CPU or memory overall.
