-A: A common reason apps (i.e., executables) get blocked and/or detected as a virus — even when there's nothing malicious about them, like in the case of WingetUI — is because they're not being used by a relatively large amount of people.

Combine that with the fact that you might be downloading something recently released, and simply blocking unknown apps is in many cases a good precaution to take to prevent actual malware.

To mitigate the risks of downloading malware, Microsoft has implemented a few checks for the software available on Winget. Even so, It's recommended to only download software from publishers that you trust.
+`--daemon`: Start UniGetUI without spawning a new window. UniGetUI will run minimized on the system tray. UniGetUI is called with this parameter when launched at startup. **Autostart UniGetUI in the notifications area** must be enabled for this parameter to work.
`--welcomewizard` (or simply `--welcome`): Show a window to choose which package managers to use.
`--updateapps`: Enable automatic installation of available updates.
