files/packages, and for replicating Windows' "Programs and Features"/"Apps and Features"
graphical user interface as objects and text.

an object for each program. Is an object-based and text-based version of Windows' "Programs and Features"/"Apps and
Features" GUI.

code, product version, etc. Let's you inspect an MSI for its metadata without installing it. Can also download the MSI
file first. This function requires Windows PowerShell or PowerShell 7.1+ on Windows.
