About [Deprecated] OpenLens
## 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](https://github.com/freelensapp/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](https://community.chocolatey.org/packages/freelens)** as a dependency.
---
### Migration
To migrate manually:
```powershell
choco uninstall openlens
choco install freelens
```
Or simply update, and the dependency will handle the transition:
```powershell
choco upgrade openlens
```.
