Hi,
I did the same performance with Winget recently.
And Winstall (winstall.app/) is awesome for this.

Also

"The winget tool requires Windows 10, version 1809 (10.0.17763), or a later version of Windows 10."

Which might be limiting.

"The winget tool is currently a preview, so not all planned functionality is available at this time."

Yes I remember winget isn't live yet so it won't be usable for all. Also chocolatey is relatively evolved and supports more functions along with a super helpful community.

Thanks for the ideas @jonjpbm and @djibe
