Any chance that WinBox will be made available in the Windows package manager, WinGet? I know it’s available in scoop (which I use and love), but it would be handy to also have in WinGet.

The installed app do no supply informations of the version installed to Winget.
It can be confirmed on the following screenshots:
Since the package manager doesn't know the installed software version, it obviously can't compare and know whether or not it's necessary to install the new version.
And it's worth mentioning that the package manager doesn't know which package to install because MikroTik doesn't include this information when generating the package.
Basically, it's just one more variable to pass to the packager when generating the installer during the CI/CD of building new versions.
Another problem is that Mikrotik is not properly maintaining package versioning in the Winget app replication repository.
