    The app and subsequent updates must be installed manually, as the program doesn’t have automatic updates.

    BRB updating 7zip on my Windows partitions real quick. Since apparently automatic updates for 7zip aren’t a thing, I bet they’ve never been updated on my machines ever since initially installing it with Ninite

      To be fair apps checking for updates is a stupid backwards thing from Windows, where you’d install manually random packages from random sources.

      Checking for updates is the job of your package manager, and in any reasonable system that should be enough

      I bet ninite gave you an update when you ran the installer app again.

      Otherwise, can I speak to you about our Lord and Savior Chocolatey? choco update should do it (I fumble here - I use a config management app to manage my wife’s desktop)
