UniGetUI brings package-manager software tasks into one graphical interface: users can discover, install, update, and uninstall packages without using the command line. It supports WinGet, Chocolatey, Scoop, Snap, Pip, Npm, .NET Tool, and PowerShell Gallery. Search and filters help locate packages, with publisher, size, and direct download URL details available for review. Users can also batch-install, update, or remove packages, and export package lists with parameters for import on another machine. Updates can be applied automatically or announced with notifications; individual packages can be ignored. Builds are available for Windows, macOS, and Linux, and installation options include Microsoft Store, WinGet, Scoop, and Chocolatey. UniGetUI is free, open source, and MIT licensed. The project is intended for individual and organizational use. Package manager support can vary by Windows version, and some packages may need administrator privileges or extra dependencies. The project advises reviewing third-party package sources and publishers before installation.
