It might be better to automate the installation of winget by downloading the license XML file and Add-AppxProvisionedPackage. If you want an example, take a look at my pull request #285. The alternative I implemented is a bit more sophisticated due to it being tailored for LTSC and Server editions of Windows, but the download and install commands should be the same (minus the VCLibs install).

I'll look into it

Automated Winget Install Suggested by Carterpersall
21f0eeb 
- Automate winget install by running `Add-AppxPackage` command
- Removed wait process as `Add-AppxPackage` can install in the background without user intervention
@mrhaydendp
Removed Test Path
6d5b4b8 
- Removed my local path used for testing & replaced with generalized .\
@mrhaydendp
Reverted to GUI Winget installation
1c7e176

@mrhaydendp

Not the proper way to install winget, and the batch installer has no configuration with selecting apps.

Batch-Install
Sorry for not being clear in code comments, batch install shows a gui with all applications and lets you select multiple to install through winget
