Closes #18998

Adds a portable (ZIP-based, no admin rights) manifest for the .NET Runtime, following the same layout as dotnet-sdk in Main:

  • installs from the official ZIP archives (x64, x86, arm64)
  • sets DOTNET_ROOT and adds the install directory to PATH
  • checkver follows the latest runtime of the active support phase (same logic as windowsdesktop-runtime)
  • autoupdate and hashes use the official releases.json metadata (sha512)

Pinned channels (8.0, 9.0, 10.0) are proposed separately in ScoopInstaller/Versions#3094

  • Use conventional PR title: <manifest-name[@version]|chore>: <general summary of the pull request>
  • I have read the Contributing Guide

📝 Walkthrough

Adds a Scoop manifest for .NET Runtime 10.0.12. It defines downloads and SHA-512 hashes for x64, x86, and arm64 Windows. Installation links runtime directories into a shared root and configures PATH and DOTNET_ROOT. Uninstallation removes package links, restores matching links from other installed packages when available, and restores DOTNET_ROOT if the shared root remains. The manifest also checks runtime versions and defines autoupdate URLs and hash lookup.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~8 minutes

Change: Feature

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 5b041

Uninstalling the newest runtime package while older ones remain can leave the shared dotnet host mismatched with the remaining runtimes. This affects only mixed-version setups and is easy to recover from, so it can be handled as a follow-up.

Explanation

Issue #18998 requests a fairly standard ZIP installation and excludes elaborate pre-install or post-install scripts. The manifest adds extensive post_install, pre_uninstall, and post_uninstall PowerShell logic for shared junctions, runtime selection, executable management, and environment restoration. The manifest does satisfy the portable ZIP packaging, x64/x86/arm64 support, DOTNET_ROOT configuration, active-runtime version checking, official metadata hashes, and full-version URLs. The issue specifies no separate automated test requirement.

DOTNET_ROOT was set to the package's own $dir, so installing it next to
dotnet8/9/10-runtime (Versions bucket) left only the last one visible, and
updating or uninstalling one removed DOTNET_ROOT for all of them.

Expose the runtime in a common root, <scoop root>\shared\dotnet, built from
junctions to the package's own files. The root is derived from basedir, so it
works with portable and global Scoop installs.
- post_install: link host\fxr\<ver> and shared\<framework>\<ver>, copy dotnet.exe
- env_set: DOTNET_ROOT points to the common root
- pre_uninstall: remove only this package's junctions, delete the root when empty
- post_uninstall: restore DOTNET_ROOT while another runtime remains

Same scripts as dotnet8-runtime, dotnet9-runtime and dotnet10-runtime in the
Versions bucket.
The ASP.NET Core zip also bundles host\fxr and Microsoft.NETCore.App, so both
packages can provide the same junction in the shared root.

- post_install: keep an existing valid junction (first owner wins).
- pre_uninstall: re-link each junction owned by this package to another
  installed package providing the same runtime before removing the root.
…install and uninstall edge cases

- Compare the full dotnet.exe file version instead of the major only
- Find replacement runtimes in installed version dirs when NO_JUNCTION is set
- Stop recursively deleting the shared dotnet root; remove only empty dirs

official .NET runtime host muxer dotnet.exe hostfxr shared root version compatibility

💡 Result:

If you mean **how `dotnet.exe` (the muxer), `hostfxr`, and the shared runtime relate**:

- **`dotnet.exe` selects `hostfxr` from its own installation root**—on Windows, typically the highest version under `host\fxr\<version>`. `hostfxr` then resolves the app’s requested framework from `shared\...`. ([github.com](https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/blob/main/docs/design/features/host-components.md?utm_source=openai))
- **Runtime compatibility is a separate decision:** the app’s `.runtimeconfig.json` requests a framework version, and `hostfxr` applies roll-forward rules to choose an installed runtime. The default permits patch roll-forward and, in specified circumstances, minor-version roll-forward; major-version roll-forward requires policy/configuration. ([learn.microsoft.com](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-my/dotnet/core/versions/selection?utm_source=openai))
- **Practical rule:** run a private installation with its matching `dotnet.exe`, keeping `hostfxr` and shared frameworks under that same root. Microsoft specifically recommends the matching host for private installs; mixing roots can cause the host to discover the wrong frameworks. ([learn.microsoft.com](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/runtime-discovery/troubleshoot-app-launch?utm_source=openai))

So, the muxer’s version does **not** itself determine the app’s runtime version. It loads a `hostfxr` from its root; that `hostfxr` resolves the runtime according to the app’s configuration and installed frameworks. The cited docs describe the current general layout and policies, not a guarantee that every arbitrary cross-version `dotnet.exe`/`hostfxr` pairing is supported. ([learn.microsoft.com](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/distribution-packaging?utm_source=openai))

🌐 Web query:

site:github.com/dotnet/runtime dotnet.exe muxer hostfxr root host components compatibility version

💡 Result:

The .NET runtime repo distinguishes **host location** from **host-version compatibility**:

- **`dotnet.exe` (the muxer)** finds `hostfxr` under `host/fxr/<version>` beside the `dotnet` executable, generally choosing the highest available version. ([github.com](https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/blob/main/docs/design/features/host-components.md?utm_source=openai))
- The repo’s install-location design says `hostfxr` should be the same version as or newer than the muxer. That’s a design constraint, not a promise that arbitrary versions are compatible. ([github.com](https://github.com/dotnet/designs/blob/main/accepted/2020/install-locations.md?utm_source=openai))
- **Compatibility APIs:** The native-hosting design says the muxer and `apphost` continue using the older hostfxr APIs; `hostfxr` must remain backward-compatible with those APIs. It also notes muxer and `hostfxr` versions should almost always match. ([github.com](https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/blob/main/docs/design/features/native-hosting.md?utm_source=openai))
- **Components:** `hostfxr` resolves frameworks and loads `hostpolicy`; `hostpolicy` is versioned with the runtime it serves. ([github.com](https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/blob/main/docs/design/features/host-components.md?utm_source=openai))

**Bottom line:** The muxer selects `hostfxr` from its own installation’s `host/fxr` directory; compatibility is maintained through hostfxr’s backward-compatible APIs, not by assuming every combination of host component versions works. These sources are the repository’s current `main` docs, not a version-pinned release.

Refresh the shared muxer after removing its provider.

post_install copies dotnet.exe into the shared root. When the removed package supplied the newer muxer, pre_uninstall can leave it paired with an older surviving hostfxr. This is not a dangling link, but it is not a version-agnostic pairing and may make the shared host unsupported.

Copy the highest-version dotnet.exe from a surviving package while runtime links remain.
