Official package ID (placeholder)

The official winget package ID for LibreWolf is:

[INSERT_WINGET_PACKAGE_ID_HERE]

If you don't have the package ID yet, use winget search librewolf to find available packages and confirm the publisher and version before installing.

Why exact package ID matters

Using the exact package ID avoids installing malicious or unofficial packages. The package ID usually looks like Vendor.Product or a GUID-like value. Always verify the Publisher field and cross-check with the official project sources listed on the Download page or the project's GitHub.

Install example

Replace <PACKAGE_ID> with the ID shown above:

winget install --id <PACKAGE_ID> --source winget

For automated runs in scripts you can call this from PowerShell or a provisioning tool. Winget by default runs non-interactively if a package supports silent install options.

Sample manifest (winget manifest schema)

Below is a minimal example of a winget manifest YAML for LibreWolf. Maintainers submit manifests to the winget-pkgs repository — this example shows key fields that must match the packaged binary and publisher.

Security: verifying winget installs

After winget installs the package, you can verify the installed binary's checksum (if desired) by locating the installed EXE and running checksum tools. For scripted verification, compare the downloaded installer's SHA256 with the official value before invoking the installer.

How to contribute or update the winget package

  1. Fork the winget-pkgs repository on GitHub (microsoft/winget-pkgs) or use the official contribution flow.
  2. Create or update the manifest in the appropriate folder following the repository guidelines.
  3. Provide accurate installer URLs, SHA256 checksums and publisher metadata.
  4. Open a PR and respond to any automated validation failures (CI will check manifest syntax and checksum format).
