What is Chocolatey

Chocolatey NuGet is a Machine Package Manager, somewhat like apt-get (UNIX), but built with Windows in mind.

How to Install

  1. Open PowerShell ISE as admin (typical 64-bit path %windir%\sysWOW64\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\PowerShell_ISE.exe)
  2. Set Execution Policy Permissions
  3. Run the installation script from https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1
get-packageprovider -name chocolatey
Stop-Process -processName: powershell* -force # This will restart PowerShell to make this work.

@powershell -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command "iex ((new-object net.webclient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))" && SET PATH=%PATH%;%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\chocolatey\bin
taskkill /im powershell* /f

iex ((new-object net.webclient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))
Stop-Process -processName: powershell* -force # This will restart PowerShell to make this work.
