Purpose:

• This was created to accomodate running winget upgrade as a scheduled task in Windows Task Scheduler with little to no user intervention required.
• I set my Scheduled Task to trigger on workstation unlock and call 'winget_oncePerDay_invis.vbs' once per day using wscript.exe.

How it works:

• Run winget upgrade silently by calling 'winget_oncePerDay_invis.vbs'.
• Calling 'winget_oncePerDay_invis.vbs' then silently calls 'winget_oncePerDay.ps1'.
• When 'winget_oncePerDay.ps1' is called on first run, the script then inserts today's date into 'winget-task_LastRunDate.txt', then proceeds to call 'winget_upgrade.bat'.
• 'winget_upgrade.bat' runs winget upgrade and logs the output to winget_upgrade_log.txt.
• If 'winget_oncePerDay.ps1' is run again, but the log file 'winget-task_LastRunDate.txt' already contains today's date, the execution of 'winget_upgrade.bat' will be skipped.
