gsudo v2.0.5-ChocoInstallPreview

on GitHub

Release for testing changes in the Choco/MSI installer.

• Fixed Windows 7 issue enumerating named pipes (#215)

• Changes in MSI installer:

  • Installs to %ProgramFiles(x86)%\gsudo\vX.X.X
  • Creates a symlink %ProgramFiles(x86)%\gsudo\Current that links to vX.X.X
  • This allows to use gsudo to install a new gsudo version using WinGet (for Scoop/Choco that was already possible)
    gsudo winget upgrade gsudo

• Changes in Chocolatey package:

  • This version no longer uses a custom Chocolatey installer, so not installing to C:\tools\gsudo\v2.x.x anymore
  • Instead, it uses the official gsudoSetup.MSI included in this release. (Mentioned above)
  • This means, for example, that even if you install with choco install gsudo, you can uninstall or upgrade with winget. Or uninstall with add or remove programs.

• Scoop not affected.
