:choco-warning: WARNING SHIM DEPRECATION
With the release of Chocolatey CLI v1.0.0 we have deprecated the following shims/shortcuts:
- chocolatey (Alias for choco)
- cinst (Shortcut for choco install)
- cpush (Shortcut for choco push)
- cuninst (Shortcut for choco uninstall)
- cup (Shortcut for choco upgrade)
We recommend that any scripts calling these shims be updated to use the full command, as these shims will be removed in Chocolatey CLI v2.0.0.

Options and Switches

Options and switches apply to all items passed, so if you are running a command like install that allows installing multiple packages, and you use
--version=1.0.0
