Microsoft has released a new preview of Windows Package Manager 1.11, introducing new features and enhancements. Support for 32-bit ARM has been discontinued, and it now includes support for Microsoft Desired State Configuration (DSC) v3. This feature facilitates the export of device configurations, encompassing Windows Settings, packages sourced from configured WinGet sources, and DSC v3-enabled packages. Experimental features encompass support for fonts through winget settings. Changes include fixes for problems connecting to the catalog, system crashes, support for DSCv3 in configuration PowerShell modules, adding a missing comma in cgmanifest.json, and improvements to DSC command descriptions.
