Winget RC Packages
Hi,
I install a lot of my applications using Winget. I noticed that there is a winget package named "WinSCP.WinSCP" which is up to date with version "6.5.6". However I also note that there is a package "WinSCP.WinSCP.RC".
I was looking to install WinSCP version "6.6.2" in order to configure the new OpenSSH functionality. This feature worked perfectly fine when I used the download available on the "All Downloads" page.
However, the latest available "WinSCP.WinSCP.RC" edition is "5.18.5-" which is quite old. I'd really appreciate it if the Winget RC package was updated to reflect what RCs are available.
I did notice that someone brought this WinSCP.WinSCP package to your attention back in 2024 (https://winscp.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=34350) because it was out of date and I do note that the package is subsequently updated now - despite martin's post on this matter at the time.
I would also say that "winget" is now provided as standard on Windows for package management - no longer do we need to use choco, scoop or any other CLI-ized deliciously unhealthy food item to install Windows software.
PS: I've used WinSCP on and off now for decades, thank you so much for your dedication on the project!
Thanks,
Jim
