  1. Some apps cannot be uninstalled silently in the uninstallation phase, and you need to manually uninstall it using other methods.

    • You can use the system built-in uninstallation, or other third-party uninstallation tools.
    • Please note to keep App Data, and they will be handled correctly during the uninstallation process of Scoop.
  2. After manually uninstalling, you can re-execute the uninstall/update command.

TIP

  • For the update operation, you can use scoop hold to prevent Scoop from checking for updates, and use their built-in updates.
  • In abyss, some apps that are suitable for built-in updates will automatically run scoop hold after installation.
