The vcpkg 2026.04.27 registry release and April tool releases bring several improvements: install locking has been moved to the installed directory to allow multiple vcpkg instances to work in parallel without blocking, locks added to buildtrees and packages directories for more reliable parallel builds (especially with MSBuild), the z-applocal command is now cross-platform for PE dependency analysis, and the depend-info command now supports manifest mode. The registry now contains 2,807 total ports, with 35 new ports added and 370 updated in April, with contributions from 103 community members.
