Request for token of download url for use on WinGet

SpecterShell · 2021-09-05 14:58

I would like to create a manifest for Renamer on WinGet (Windows Package Manager), but the download urls from the websites are not static.

I noticed that the manifests on Scoop and Chocolatey are using urls with different token params. Could you generate another token for use on WinGet? THX.:)

A token has been allocated. I'm sure you will guess it

Please share the manifest before making it public, for a quick check. Send it by email or post it here, whatever suits.

By the way, could I create manifests for other products (Shutter, Colors, etc.)?

Those manifests look good!

What is the purpose of the "ProductCode" property, and why is it set to "ReNamer_is1"?

Also, maybe remove the "?x=get" style URL, it is obsolete and will stop working at some point.

Feel free to create manifests for other products too.

"ReNamer_is1" is taken from the registry key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\ReNamer_is1", where the installation information of this product stores. Maybe the suffix is appended by Inno Setup.

ProductCode is used to assist WinGet to match the manifest to the program installed in Windows for upgrade and uninstallation.

Found an official reference which confirms it:
https://jrsoftware.org/ishelp/index.php … etup_appid

AppId also determines the actual name of the Uninstall registry key, to which Inno Setup tacks on "_is1" at the end. Therefore, if AppId is "MyProgram", the key will be named "MyProgram_is1".

So it's all good.
