Hello,

I have a workstation where chocolaty starts out working fine, but then choco.exe renames itself into choco.exe.old and another file is made called choco.exe.old?

I removed Chocolatey compleatly and re-installed and again, it started out fine, but then an hour or so later, it had renamed itself again. Any explanation for this?

Is there still a choco.exe file in the root and in the ./bin folder after renames?

if you to a properties on both files are they the same version #?

Just making sure we are not seeing Choco updates.

I am seeing the same inside our deployments in the bin dir. Date happened on same day but only once.
