Because you don't need one silly.
Just like Apple does, Microsoft knows what the best packages are for you, and those are the ones you should use. :3

"""apps""" galery
i mean real package manager, where you can get needed software by few keystrokes

package managers suck though

-can't choose directory to install
-can't choose older versions to install
-need to download repositories
-can't choose options like associations, firewall, etc

fuck that, i like the way windows does it

i tried linux and that shit is garbage

>>60268083
I use Windows on daily basis, but I often feel lack of linux style package manager, it's more efficient

>>60268050

Worthless adware garbage.

>>60268108

it's not more efficient though

>>60268125
sometimes it is, especially for downloading compilers because its a pain in the ass in windows. for other things, not really.

bash on windows

>>60268125

Windows:

>download Qbittorrent.exe
>install it
>works

Loonix:

>have to find out what package manager you use
>ok, it has it it in my package manager
>install it
>it's an old version
>update my manager
>still old version
>have to google the repo address for latest version
>install repo
>update it

very efficient, right

>will prefer to have to get the program at a specific single place.


If there is ONE SINGLE THING that windows did right is not having package management. But obviously since microsoft is a shitty company, they will include it at their systems at some point of time.

>>will prefer to have to get the program at a specific single place.

This sounds like those distopian books or movies, where the state or a company tell how you can get your stuff.

The first time I got some smartphone I said to myself, "wtf is that shit"

>>60268036
It's had one since Windows 8. Have you seriously never heard of the Windows store?

autism: the post
What the flying fuck is so special about those specific versions that you insist so much on having them? can't you just fucking do your shit without sperging out about irrelevant shit?
Also, if you want newer shit just install Debian unstable or Arch/Arch derivatives.

I don't mind the windows installation process, but I do hate how it's nearly impossible to get completely of something once installed. there 's always at least some registry shenanigans left behind.

>>60269429
I know. It's like you can't possibly get completely of something. I mean how would you even start? The other day I the entire program.

>>60268155
My turn:
Linux:
>sudo *install command* qbittorrent
>works

Winblows:
>have to find out what version of the package I want
>have to find the site of the company that makes the package
>have to navigate through the shitty site
>have to wait 5 seconds for sourceforge to start the download
>have to navigate to the download folder
>have to install it
>have to reboot the computer because $unrelated_software was running during the installation
>have to wait for Windows to update
>have to wait for Windows to keep updating
>works

>>60269456
So it's microsoft's fault the site is awful?
Also do you realize how many fucking applications would need to be in the list? Linux has the luxury of having so few choices because no one wants to use the shit.

Also...
>Install application
>Run windows update
Just why.

>>60269491
Windows defaults to forcing update installation before rebooting...

Basically this, why everybody is posting these shitty long green text stories is beyond retardation.

This thread is shit b8

>>60268036
For real ?. Not even joking ?. This is for real ?.
I don't believe this, OMFGGD (OH MY FUCKING GOOD GOD DEMON ) this is not a dream.
This guy really say "Windows ""still"" doesn't have package manager". I can't even rate your level of "analytics" anon, but i'm sure your a happy person. :)

>>60269456
And in the end, when.you try to run the program:
> Error: someRandom.DLL is not found
Gosh did I forget to reinstall VisualStudio AGAIN??

>>60268083
I can see you know what you're talking about

>linux still doesn't have thumbnails in the file picker

>>60268083
You can only choose a different directory, if the installer allows you, to change it.
In linux, it does not matter, because you can put the libs onto a separate partition/HD than the rest of the application. That gives flexibility, so that you don't need to replace the files.

You'd rather a malicious threat install a vulnerable version of the same. Some of you Windows morons don't even realise the risk you put you and your data in.
Much root rights. I remember I had to click on a UAC popup before installing Firefox on Windows, that's the same as sudo faggot.

Most Windows programs are clones of clones and fucking registry defrag utilities or whatever. Windows programs, if you look at every single one in existence, are like 90% bullshit trash applications. The funny thing is that Linux has higher quality programs.
