# Finding packages in the WinGet Repository

## What

WinGet is a command line tool to manage applications on the Windows platform.

<p class="callout info">Note that FileWave 15.4 or later is required.</p>

## When/Why

WinGet will install software. But, to do so, we'll need to see if the package we are looking for is in the repository.

## How

In FileWave Central click on "New Desktop Fileset" when in the Filesets window and then pick "Winget" as the type of Fileset.

In our case, since we want **Notepad++** to deploy. Clicking Create Fileset will make it.
