 You can use WingetCreate to update your existing app manifest as part of your CI/CD pipeline. For reference, see the final task in this repo's [release Azure pipeline](https://github.com/microsoft/winget-create/blob/main/pipelines/azure-pipelines.release.yml).
 
 ### Using the standalone exe:
-The latest version of the standalone exe can be found at https://aka.ms/wingetcreate/latest, and the latest preview version can be found at https://aka.ms/wingetcreate/preview, both of these require [.NET 5.0](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/5.0) to be installed on the build machine.
+The latest version of the standalone exe can be found at https://aka.ms/wingetcreate/latest, and the latest preview version can be found at https://aka.ms/wingetcreate/preview, both of these require [.NET Runtime 6.0](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/6.0) to be installed on the build machine. To install this on your build machine in your pipeline, you can include the following dotnet task:
+
+```yaml
+      - task: UseDotNet@2
+        displayName: 'Install .NET Runtime'
+        inputs:
+          packageType: sdk
+          version: '6.x'
+          installationPath: '$(ProgramFiles)\dotnet'
+```
+
+Or you can utilize a PowerShell task and run the following script.
+
+```PowerShell
+    Invoke-WebRequest https://dot.net/v1/dotnet-install.ps1 -OutFile dotnet-install.ps1
+    .\dotnet-install.ps1 -Runtime dotnet -Architecture x64 -Version 6.0.13 -InstallDir $env:ProgramFiles\dotnet
+```
 
 > Make sure your build machine has the [Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads-2647da03-1eea-4433-9aff-95f26a218cc0) already installed. Without this, the standalone WingetCreate exe will fail to execute and likely show a "DllNotFoundException" error.
 
-Then simply add a new powershell task to download the exe, and run it to update your manifest. It's recommended to not hardcode your PAT in your script, but instead to use a [secret pipeline variable](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/devops/pipelines/process/variables?view=azure-devops&tabs=yaml%2Cbatch#secret-variables).
+To execute the standalone exe, add another PowerShell task to download and run the ./wingetcreate.exe to update your existing manifest. You will need a GitHub personal access token if you would like to submit your updated manifest. It is not recommended to hardcode your PAT in your script as this poses as a security threat. You should instead store your PAT as a [secret pipeline variable](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/devops/pipelines/process/variables?view=azure-devops&tabs=yaml%2Cbatch#secret-variables).

-        .\wingetcreate.exe update <packageId> -u $(packageUrls) -v $(manifestVersion) -t $(GITHUB_PAT)
-      displayName: Update package manifest in the OWC
+```PowerShell

+```
 
 ### Using the msixbundle:
 Windows Server 2022 now supports App Execution Aliases, which means the alias `wingetcreate` can be used to run the tool after installing the msixbundle. The latest version of the msixbundle can be found at https://aka.ms/wingetcreate/latest/msixbundle. Similar to the standalone exe steps, download the msixbundle, add the package, and run `wingetcreate` to update your manifest.
