AppGeek

Purpose: AppGeek scans installed programs and Windows Store packages, compares them with winget, and shows which applications are out of date.
App catalogue: It includes a curated catalogue of 67 applications verified against the live winget repository.
User control: AppGeek does not install updates automatically; users choose which updates to run.
Version pinning: Users can pin an application version so AppGeek no longer offers that update.
Inventory: AppGeek exports installed application inventories as CSV or HTML.
Integration: AppGeek uses Microsoft's winget package manager to match available updates and download requested installers.
Privacy: The maker says AppGeek has no telemetry or account and that the installed software list stays on the user's PC.
Network activity: The maker says AppGeek's own network traffic is limited to winget downloading requested installers and an optional update check initiated by the user.
Security: The maker says releases publish SHA-256 checksums and that AppGeek is not code signed, so Windows may warn on first run.
Requirements: AppGeek requires 64-bit Windows 10 version 1809 or later, or Windows 11, and administrator rights.
Builds: The maker offers installer, portable, and light builds; the light build requires the .NET 8 Desktop Runtime.
Licence: AppGeek is open source under GPL-3.0, including for commercial use.
Support: Bug reports and feature requests can be submitted through the AppGeek GitHub issue tracker.
Intended users: The maker describes AppGeek for home PC users, people setting up or rebuilding machines, and IT pros and technicians.
