Description
DEPRECATED
OpenLens has been deprecated because the project is discontinued.
In early 2024, Mirantis removed the public source code for Lens, making it impossible to build new OpenLens releases. The last OpenLens release (v6.5.2-366) was in June 2023.
Freelens is an active open-source fork created by community contributors to continue the OpenLens vision with modern Kubernetes support and long-term maintenance.
What happens when you install this package?
This deprecated package will automatically install the replacement package freelens as a dependency.
Migration
To migrate manually:
choco uninstall openlens
choco install freelens
Or simply update, and the dependency will handle the transition:
choco upgrade openlens
