    Check out the Chocolatey package manager for Windows. It makes updates for all our common packages available through git/yum/brew easily installed/updated on Windows.

      I just use winget to update Libreoffice since it’s already there in windows 10/11.

      “Winget update LibreOffice” in a power shell terminal.

      Updating it manually sucks.
