I've got a package build failure: https://gist.github.com/choco-bot/550a03518d614a2901f1e1852e7a1daf
Very little has changed since the previous version. The logs look like some windows update is triggering a reboot, but I could be reading that wrong.
Is that a known potential issue?
If not let me know and I'll try to set up the vagrant test env

@naveen521kk Your post of September 17th is a simple sentence and does not define what you are actually asking about... if I read back though this thread.. it appears you are asking about Get-BinRoot. and if you read the release notes on Get-ToolsLocation "Sets an environment variable called ChocolateyToolsLocation. If the older ChocolateyBinRoot is set, it uses the value from that and removes the older variable." so the Location is not wiped, just the variable name change to ChocolateyToolsLocation.
Thanks for answering. Unrelated to the previous thread. But I am asking how to update an application. I have installed the application to the Tools Location and there is a different procedure for updating the application and it doesn't need the Tools location to be wiped and the new one installed.(It may miss some configuration given by user). Now, here the question is, will to Tools location be deleted as soon as the users used
choco update <> or else it will be later wiped?
I'm trying to install chocolatey in my laptop, but every time I paste this script (Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force; [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol -bor 3072; iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1')) ) in powerShell I'm getting this error (At line:1 char:1

Please let me know if there is an option to check whether same or higher version of app is already installed before attempting to install.
This is the code I am using but the it fails when the same or higher version is already installed on the machine.
ChocolateyInstall("libreoffice-fresh", new ChocolateyInstallSettings {
Version = "6.4.6",
NotSilent = false,
IgnoreChecksums = true
});

I want to install Chocolatey in Windows 10 Single Home
??
I think there might already be an enhancement request for this in the repository, but if not, can you add one?
sorry for the mix up,
Also happens here: https://chocolatey.org/packages/foobar2000/1.6
looks like validator URL check is buggy
I have seen the ALLUSERS1 args but these are failing or I'm not using the correct context
@Jay_Hul_twitter it is very possible that the installer that you use do not provide a way to install for all users.
Also,
If it is a later inno setup installer, you can also try
Also,
ALLUSERS1 is not an argument I have seen work for any installer, did you mean ALLUSERS=1? If so, that is usually only available for MSI (anly not all support it).If it is a later inno setup installer, you can also try
/ALLUSERS argument (supported for inno setup installers using inno setup 6.x, but only if they opt-in for it).
I can't seem to find it so I can import it into my RSS feed app
@kimcdow Actually, that won't work. That #Requires just causes the script not to run if launched with PS 5.1, but given that Chocolatey creates its shims using PS 5.1, my script just never executes. I'm moving forward with just not creating the shim (Install-ChocolateyPowershellCommand) and installing the script itself in a folder that is in $Env:PATH.
@DrStrangepork See the docs: https://chocolatey.org/docs/features-shim#i-need-to-exclude-a-file-from-shimming
TLDR, create a
TLDR, create a
file.exe.ignore file next to the file.exe you want to not be shimmed.
