Step-2: Finding a Software Package to install
Now, that you’ve installed you need to find the software package that you want to download. We’ll take the above example of Notepad++.
Well, as I said just three words, but those three should be clearly prefect while typing in. No spelling mistake or mistyping the command. I’ll explain the keywords first.
choco : This calls the chocolatey package manager. Command prompt tells the package manager to wake up for the work.
install : This is a command that is to be given to the package manager. It’s pretty simple we want the package manager to install a software. So install keyword is used. (There are many commands you can use more given down below.)
notepadplusplus : Now this the package name that we want to install and chocolatey can identify the package only if we add this keyword. Not notepad++ or NotepadPlusPlus. It’ll give error.
So, how to find the package name that you want to download? For that there’s another command search. So, if you want to find package name for notepad++ type in:
choco search notepad++
Or else just you can use just notepad to get broader search results. Also, you can find packages on their website too. So, that way you can find any package you want to find and install. And make sure you don’t mistype the keywords. You can also add version number to download specific version of that software.
Step-3: Type in Command and Hit Enter
Now all you have to do is type in the command to install.
choco install notepadplusplus
And Hit enter! That’s all you have to do. The software will be installed in Program files (x86) folder if it is 32 bit software or in the Program Files folder if it is 64 bit.
