New Update UniGetUI (formerly WingetUI)

[silversurfer]

UniGetUI 3.1.7 beta 1​

General changes​

• A new experimental change has been introduced, which makes UniGetUI consume near to 0% CPU when on background. This setting can be disabled from the settings, under experimental features.
• A new "Manual Scan" button has been added, so users can manually add more desktop shortcuts to automatically remove. (thanks @mrixner)
• After some analysis from the telemetry data, I was able to identify and fix some issues causing package operations to fail. The improvements apply to:
  • Chocolatey (fixed some hangs and improved operation output parsing)
  • Pip (removed deprecated flag and improved operation output parsing)
  • Vckpg (better vcpkg update and bootstrapping, significantly improving success rate)
  • .NET Tool (better global tool handling, mostly affecting new installs)
  • Scoop (better error detection and operation output parsing)
  • Cargo (usage of cargo-binstall for faster and more reliable install and update operations)
• Added a subtitle to the titlebar, what will inform the user when UniGetUI runs under special conditions (administrator, portable, etc.)
• Fixed a hard crash when UniGetUI can't write to the exe location in portable mode.
• Improvements to the UI Layout. Hidden pages will be detached from the root, instead of being hidden.
• Improvements to executable detection (for executables added to PATH)
• AppSdk was updated to 1.6.5

I like this program. I downloaded the new beta 2 and installed it over my existing release version. What I found most interesting is that SAC (Smart App Control) did not have a hissy fit.and it installed perfectly.
