CarePackage is a desktop application for Windows 10/11 heavily inspired by Ninite that makes it quick and easy to download and install all of your favorite software at once. CarePackage's intended use case is to be used on a new installation of Windows, but of course you can use it however you'd like!

You can view all software managed by CarePackage in SOFTWARE.md.

What CarePackage DOES:

• Downloads the latest versions of the software you select
• Installs each software, one after another, or presents the files if they are compressed archives
• Allows you to opt out of installing the software after they've been downloaded
