On default WinGet installs, winget search can return rows from both winget and msstore sources (Microsoft documents --source as the way to narrow search results). This command neither constrains the source nor parses the Source column, so the dynamic entry later stores only $res.Id; Install-WinUtilProgramWinget then forces --source winget unless the ID is prefixed with msstore:. Store-only results surfaced here will be selectable but fail to install, so either search only --source winget or carry the parsed source through.

Because this freshness token is only the search text, an in-flight Winget search for the same text still passes after the user switches to Choco and starts the refreshed search, so whichever CLI finishes last can overwrite the current Package Manager Results with the wrong manager. Clearing the box has the same stale-update path because the empty-search branch returns before changing this value. Track the manager/empty state too, or use a monotonically increasing request id, before allowing the runspace to update the UI.

Initialize-InstallAppEntry returns the checkbox, and the app tile's border click handler looks it up with $sync.$($this.Tag); the normal render path assigns that return value into $sync.$appKey, but dynamic entries discard it here. For Package Manager Results, clicking the card outside the checkbox will therefore dereference $null instead of toggling selection, so store the returned control under the dynamic key just like the curated render path.

If a text search has already populated Package Manager Results, clicking a category chip calls this function with a non-empty $Category; this branch skips the dynamic container and the package-manager query block is also skipped, so stale package-manager cards remain visible alongside the category-filtered curated apps. Collapse or clear the dynamic results when applying category filters so the filter view only shows apps from the requested category.

Find-WinUtilPackageManagerApps returns its array with a unary comma, so wrapping the call in @(...) preserves the whole result set as a single array object rather than the individual package objects. The later foreach/indexing then treats all matches—or even an empty result array—as one $res, producing at most one combined/bogus dynamic tile instead of the actual package results. Flatten the returned value or stop suppressing enumeration before deduping.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
When a user checks a dynamic Package Manager Results app and then types a new search or switches managers, this pruning deletes the selected app's backing applicationsHashtable entry but never removes its key from $sync.selectedApps or the selected-apps popup. The install path builds packages from selectedApps, so that selection resolves to $null and the workflow can finish without installing the package while the UI still reports it selected; uncheck/remove dynamic selections before deleting their entries, or keep selected dynamic entries until they are explicitly deselected.

For dynamic package-manager results, this derives $app.link by taking the first package-ID segment and appending .com; the existing app popup opens that link for the Info action. Package-manager IDs are not guaranteed to be website domains, especially Chocolatey slugs, so users can be sent to an unrelated or squatted site for a package that otherwise installs correctly; use real package metadata/official package pages or leave the link unavailable until it is known.

@chatgpt-codex-connector For the third point ('Avoid inventing package website URLs'), this URL generation logic was explicitly requested in the prior review by CodeRabbit to preserve the existing behavior (preserve the existing URL behavior for valid tokens), while falling back to GitHub when the token is invalid. Adding synchronous fetch calls for real metadata would block the UI thread during search, which this PR is specifically designed to fix. Therefore, I will leave this specific part unchanged. |

If a user selects a dynamic Choco result and then switches the radio button back to Winget before pressing Install, this entry only carries winget = "na"; Invoke-WPFInstall later uses the current preference, and Get-WinUtilSelectedPackages reads only the Winget field in that mode, so the selected Choco package is silently skipped. Dynamic results should either install from the manager they came from or prevent cross-manager selections from being carried into a different preference.

While an install or uninstall is running, the workflow only disables $sync.ItemsControl; the search box and package-manager radio buttons can still call this function. This new branch starts another runspace for every non-empty Install-tab search without checking $sync.ProcessRunning, so typing during an active package operation can run winget search/choco search concurrently with the install/uninstall package-manager process. Short-circuit dynamic repository searches while ProcessRunning or disable those inputs during package operations.

Because dynamic results use synthetic WPFInstall_dynamic_* keys, selecting one puts that key in $sync.selectedApps, and the existing export path writes selected app keys without package metadata. On a fresh run or config import, applicationsHashtable is rebuilt only from config/applications.json, so the imported dynamic key resolves to $null in the selected-apps popup/install path and the package cannot be installed from the exported config. Exclude these session-only entries from export or persist enough manager/id metadata to reconstruct them.

When the user switches the package-manager radio button while an Install search is active, this handler runs, but Find-AppsByNameOrDescription only declares -SearchString and -Category in this commit, and repo-wide search shows no SelectedAppCategories sync state. The event therefore throws before refreshing results, so use the existing SearchBar.Tag/-Category path or implement the plural parameter and state first.

If stopping a later Windows Update service fails after earlier services such as BITS or wuauserv were already stopped, this new throw exits the repair flow before the startup block runs, leaving those services stopped. Either defer aborting until cleanup/restart has run, or wrap the stop phase in a finally that restores any services already changed.

When the Winget and Choco searches overlap, this background loop can enumerate applicationsHashtable.Keys while the UI-dispatched result handler is adding or removing dynamic entries. A synchronized hashtable does not make enumeration safe during concurrent writes, so one result arriving while the other runspace is deduping can throw and drop that search's results; take a locked/snapshotted copy of the keys before iterating.

This test calls Find-AppsByNameOrDescription twice with two different non-cached search strings, and each call starts both Winget and Choco catalog searches, so Find-WinUtilPackageManagerApps is invoked four times in this mocked synchronous path. Expecting only two invocations makes the Pester suite fail even when the dedupe behavior is correct; either run one search in this test or assert the four expected calls.

Idea... looks promising. I had an idea to just get rid of applications list at all and just make some PS-based alternative of UniGet embedded in WinUtil. @ChrisTitusTech note this down, may be useful for both WinUtil and OneShot |
Thanks, appreciate it. That's an interesting direction , a proper PS-native package layer would be a nice thing to have. Curious to see where it goes |
|
The Idea and implementation look mostly good to me.
Maybe a bit of information on why it was not done like that originally. It was once decided that it was more ideal to "hardcode" applications by design to only offer trusted applicaions. If u watch the PR history applications were removed once a contributor found out about one having malware/trust issues/was hacked/whatever. Issue is maintaining such a list is not easy, but also a reason a lot of people trust this utility. But it is clear that the limited list .. well has limitations. |
Thanks for the context, that history is useful, and I agree the curated list is a big part of why people trust WinUtil. |
|
hmm maybe i did not get the latest version of ur branch, for me results were just mixed with the ones from winget, and either way all had "(Winget)", sorry for this I'mma check thanks for adressing my comment either way! |
I would even call that "First aid toolset" and just leave there really necessary tools like browsers, communication tools, mandatory libraries, most popular apps etc. So it won't be debatable anymore, what to choose and what to remove. And that will draw strict borders for that block
Hehe, #4808 is one of wide examples XD |
|
@FluffyPunk the "First aid toolset" framing is a good one, it turns the curated list from something people argue about into something with an obvious bar. And #4808 is a fair example, that is exactly the maintenance cost you are describing. |
|
I think the dynamic search is useful, but I don’t think it should always mix package-manager results with the curated catalog. For example, searching AnyDesk already returns the curated WinUtil entry, but the dynamic section also shows anydesk, anydesk.install, anydesk.portable, HopToDesk, Splashtop, etc. At that point the extra results are mostly noise and make the curated choice less clear. 
I’d prefer package-manager search to be optional (through a toggle), separate, or only kick in when the curated catalog has no match. That keeps applications.json meaningful while still allowing users to install anything available through Winget/Chocolatey. |
|
I also don’t believe calling the curated catalog a “first aid toolset” really removes the debate around what belongs there. It just moves the debate to what counts as “necessary,” “popular enough,” or worthy of that smaller list, which are still subjective decisions. The more important question is the direction we want for WinUtil. Dynamic package search is useful as an additional capability, but that doesn't necessarily mean shrinking the curated catalog or turning the Install tab into a general package-manager frontend. Personally I’d keep the curated catalog meaningful and use dynamic search as an optional/fallback capability, such as when no curated result exists. Ultimately that direction is up to Chris 😄 |
|
The AnyDesk screenshot is a fair hit, when the curated catalog already answers the query the extra rows are noise and they do make the curated choice less clear. To be clear on intent, this was never meant to replace or shrink the curated catalog. It only adds results for things the catalog does not cover, so the two coexist and the curated list stays the meaningful part. That said, "always on" was the wrong default and your screenshot shows why. Of the three options you listed I lean toward the third, package manager results only kick in when the curated catalog returns no match. It needs no new control, it keeps applications.json as the first answer, and it still lets users reach anything in Winget or Chocolatey when curated comes up empty. One small addition if you think it is worth it, keep the section as a collapsed header with a count when curated did match, for example "+ Package Manager Results (5)", and auto expand it only in the no match case. That reuses the collapse behaviour already in the Install tab, so nothing new to configure, and the results are one click away without competing with the curated entry. Either way the change is small on my side, the package manager search already runs in its own block after curated filtering, so gating it is a condition rather than a rework. Happy to go with plain fallback if the collapsed section feels like extra surface. On the naming point, agreed, that is a subjective line either way. And yes, the broader direction is Chris's call, I am only aiming for this to be an additive capability rather than a shift in what the Install tab is. |

When a locked file or permission issue leaves $workDir after both deletion attempts, this return exits the clean/reset runspace before the dispatcher block that re-enables WPFWin11ISOCleanResetButton and hides the progress UI. The operation logs that cleanup was aborted, but the button remains disabled and the progress indicator stays in its cleanup state, so the user cannot retry the destructive ISO cleanup from the UI without restarting WinUtil; move the failure-state UI reset into this path or a finally.

During Win11 Creator modification, Log now calls Write-WinUtilLog, but in normal launches $sync.logPath equals $sync.transcriptPath, so that helper returns after Write-Host instead of appending to a file. This ISO modification work is running in a manually created runspace whose BeginInvoke() output is never drained, so the old per-workdir Add-Content log is removed without a reliable path into the main transcript; keep these messages on a real file path or pass a host/runspace path that the transcript actually captures.

For curated apps whose package-manager field contains multiple IDs separated by ; (for example githubdesktop has choco = "git;github-desktop" in config/applications.json), this adds the whole string to $curatedIds. A Chocolatey search result with Id = "github-desktop" will therefore pass the dedupe filter and be rendered as a dynamic duplicate of the curated app, so users can see and select the same app twice; split compound package fields before adding them to the set.

Use AnyCuratedMatch to gate dynamic results. The flag is assigned but never read, so package-manager results appear even when a curated match exists. This violates the additive-fallback behavior.

Update the empty-search tweak test for the collapsed-category reset behavior and cover the expanded branch as well.
The reset branch leaves Label.Content alone while the search branch rewrites "+ X" to "- X". Without these assertions a reset that started rewriting the marker would desync the label from its collapsed items and still pass.

Initialize PackageLinkCache before you spawn the runspaces.
Get-WinUtilPackageLink runs inside the background runspaces started at Line 364. Both the Winget runspace and the Choco runspace can evaluate $null -eq $sync.PackageLinkCache at the same time. Both then assign a new synchronized hashtable, and one assignment discards the entries written through the other. The check and the assignment are not atomic.
Create the cache once on the calling thread, next to the PackageManagerSearchCache initialization at Line 168.

Preserve the package-manager request token while the filter is unchanged.
Invoke-WinUtilInstallAppRenderBatch calls Find-AppsByNameOrDescription for each render batch. Line 90 creates a new token on every call, which invalidates the previous runspace. The in-flight guard can prevent a replacement until finally removes the marker, so all batches can finish without valid results reaching UpdatePackageManagerUI. Track the manager and search text with the token, reuse it when both are unchanged, and create a new token only when either changes.

Wrap the dispatched UI update in error handling.
$sync.UpdatePackageManagerUI builds WPF controls and mutates $sync.ItemsControl.Items. The dispatcher invokes it at Line 438 from a background runspace, so the try/catch of Find-AppsByNameOrDescription at Line 81 does not cover it.

Guard the Children[1] index.
Line 258 reads $pmContainer.Children[1] after only a null check on $pmContainer. The container is built with two children at Lines 243 and 253, but a container found by tag at Lines 189-194 carries no such guarantee. If it holds fewer than two children, the index throws.
Check $pmContainer.Children.Count -ge 2 first, as the toggle handler already does at Line 231.

Guard the concurrent enumeration of applicationsHashtable.
Two runspaces run at the same time, one for Winget and one for Choco. Each enumerates $sync.configs.applicationsHashtable.Keys at Line 383. The UI thread mutates the same hashtable at Line 280 (Remove) and Line 292 (add) while those enumerations are active.
applicationsHashtable is a plain hashtable, not a synchronized one. Enumeration during mutation throws InvalidOperationException: Collection was modified. The runspace body has a try/finally but no catch, so the exception surfaces as a runspace error and the search returns no results.
Snapshot the keys before you enumerate, for example foreach ($key in @($sync.configs.applicationsHashtable.Keys)), and build the curated ID set once on the calling thread instead of once per runspace.

Remove the matching $sync.$appKey values when you drop stale dynamic entries.
Line 316 stores each dynamic control as $sync.$appKey. The cleanup at Lines 269-281 removes stale keys from $sync.configs.applicationsHashtable only. The corresponding $sync members remain for the whole session, so $sync keeps a reference to every dynamic control ever created and to its removed catalog key.
Remove $sync.$sk in the same loop that removes the hashtable entry.

Restore previously running services before throwing.
A failure on a later Stop-Service call throws before the restart sequence at Lines 181-192 runs. For example, a failure while stopping cryptsvc can leave BITS and wuauserv stopped.

This new managerMatch requirement also runs in the Pester search fixtures, but most of those test app objects only define Content/Description/Category and do not define winget or choco. In tests such as the empty-search, literal-search, and category-filter cases, entries like WPFInstallMedia, WPFInstallLiteral, and WPFInstallPowerToys therefore never satisfy the final condition even when their text/category matches, so the search-filter suite fails in CI unless the fixtures are updated or the gate is bypassed for objects without package-manager metadata.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
When the same Install search is reapplied while lazy app rendering is still batching, this creates a fresh token even though the existing (SearchString, manager) request is still marked in flight and is skipped below. Fresh evidence in this revision is that the new GUID is minted before the in-flight-key guard, so the older runspace fails the token checks, only clears the in-flight flag in finally, and no replacement request is launched if rendering has already finished; package-manager results can disappear for searches typed during initial rendering.
