Is this actually how it still works on windows? Like it has not evolved since the 90s?

Look, they're too busy changing the UI completely every two years to change things like functionality.

They just copy Plasma anyway.

package managers technically exist, including Microsoft's own winget, and if you're on windows they're a decent choice, though they do come with a multitude of issues

there's even a decent ish package manager GUI called unigetui

Plus 1 for uni get. It's not perfect, but it's pretty damn good.
