When this command runs: cmd.exe!!! /c "@powershell -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command "iex ((new-object system.net.webclient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))" && SET PATH=%PATH%;%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\chocolatey\bin" I get this back on half my sy...

As I posted earlier. Line 2 and line 8 say to skip 4 lines. Which should be 5 lines. (This is the IF check for Choco.exe, and it skips 4 lines instead of 5) Quick question. I'm looking at the Habitat App Manage Maintenance script. The 2nd line checks for Choco.exe and then skips 4 lines, which is th...

What's the logic for the 3rd party app update manager? I fixed the script so it's working now, and this morning some devices had their Zoom clients updated, but not all online devices, and PuTTY doesn't seem to be updated at all. I can see that the App Manager script runs and inventories the apps in...

I fixed my local script to skip 5 lines instead of 4, and it's working like a charm now. It installed Chocolatey everywhere, and we found this morning it had updated Zoom on a bunch of our systems.

Ditto. The lack of more granular control is somewhat scary. Once I add an app to the main Habitat screen, it's live and will get updated on all enabled clients.

I'm not seeing Chocolatey getting deployed either. I've had this enabled for a while, and I see timestamps in the Last Scan. App Maintenance is running regularly with two log entries for each app, the second being an error like this: Quick question. I'm looking at the Habitat App Manage Maintenance ...

Reading the fine print, I found this on the main putty package:
This meta package depends on putty.portable rather then putty.install for historical reasons. Since this may violate expectation of certain users, consider installing the latter directly.
So I'll try putty.install instead.

I tried updating PuTTY, but it didn't quite have the desired effect. I had PuTTY 0.71 installed, and 0,73 is the repository version. Here's the output from the Command: System looks to be online, executing command. App Manager Running Agent Update Checks for [PuTTY release 0.71 (64-bit)]..... Chocol...

I'm new to the software deployment scene, but we're looking to get our toes wet. When you say we need Chocolatey, what does that look like in practice? Is it as easy as just installing a Chocolatey agent on all target workstations? Or do we need further Chocolatey infrastructure or licensing? How do...

Feature request: Please also include Macs and Linux admin rights. My Linux buddy tells me this would be a good query on Linux: cat /etc/group | grep -i wheel (Members of wheel have sudo access) On Mac, both these commands seem to do the trick: dscl . -read /groups/admin GroupMembership dseditgroup -...
