Installing Scoop (Windows)

cliscoopwindows

Scoop is a Windows package manager that installs CLI tools into your user space — no administrator rights required.

Install

Open PowerShell (no admin needed):

POWERSHELL
# 1. Allow running remote scripts for the current user only
Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope CurrentUser

# 2. Install Scoop
irm get.scoop.sh | iex

Verify

POWERSHELL
scoop --version

Example: install a tool

POWERSHELL
scoop install git

Note: Scoop installs to ~\scoop by default and adds itself to PATH automatically. Open a new terminal and scoop is ready to use.
