Frequently asked questions

How do I install Buf on Windows?
Open Windows Terminal, PowerShell, or Command Prompt and run: winget install --id bufbuild.buf --exact --version 1.72.0. winget downloads the installer from bufbuild and runs it. Requires Windows 10 (1809+) or Windows 11.
How do I install Buf silently for unattended deployment?
Add --silent and accept the agreements upfront: winget install --id bufbuild.buf --exact 1.72.0 --silent --accept-package-agreements --accept-source-agreements. This is the variant Intune, Configuration Manager, and other deployment tools should use.
How do I uninstall Buf via winget?
Run: winget uninstall --id bufbuild.buf --exact. Add --silent for unattended uninstalls. winget will use the registered uninstaller from Buf's Apps & Features entry.
Is Buf free?
Buf is distributed under Apache-2.0. Refer to the publisher (https://buf.build/) for the full license terms - Wingetly itself does not charge for installation.
Does Buf work on Windows 10?
Yes, as long as your Windows 10 build supports winget (1809 or newer). winget ships with App Installer on Windows 10/11 and pulls Buf directly from the publisher.
How do I keep Buf up to date?
