Installer type
MSIX installers on winget
MSIX is the modern Windows app packaging format. Apps run sandboxed, install per-user without elevation in many cases, and update transactionally. Microsoft Store apps and most new first-party apps ship as MSIX.
When to use: Prefer MSIX when an app supports it - it's the cleanest install/uninstall on Windows 10/11.
