Deployment Method:
This applies to both open source and commercial editions of Chocolatey.
1. Enter Your Internal Repository Url
(this should look similar to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/)
2. Setup Your Environment
1. Ensure you are set for organizational deployment
Please see the organizational deployment guide
2. Get the package into your environment
Option 1: Cached Package (Unreliable, Requires Internet - Same As Community)-
Open Source or Commercial:
- Proxy Repository - Create a proxy nuget repository on Nexus, Artifactory Pro, or a proxy Chocolatey repository on ProGet. Point your upstream to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/. Packages cache on first access automatically. Make sure your choco clients are using your proxy repository as a source and NOT the default community repository. See source command for more information.
- You can also just download the package and push it to a repository Download
-
Open Source
-
Download the package:
Download - Follow manual internalization instructions
-
-
Package Internalizer (C4B)
-
Run: (additional options)
choco download choco-package-list-backup --internalize --version=2022.02.06 --source=https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/
-
For package and dependencies run:
choco push --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'"
- Automate package internalization
-
Run: (additional options)
3. Copy Your Script
choco upgrade choco-package-list-backup -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'2022.02.06'" [other options]
See options you can pass to upgrade.
See best practices for scripting.
Add this to a PowerShell script or use a Batch script with tools and in places where you are calling directly to Chocolatey. If you are integrating, keep in mind enhanced exit codes.
If you do use a PowerShell script, use the following to ensure bad exit codes are shown as failures:
choco upgrade choco-package-list-backup -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'2022.02.06'"
$exitCode = $LASTEXITCODE
Write-Verbose "Exit code was $exitCode"
$validExitCodes = @(0, 1605, 1614, 1641, 3010)
if ($validExitCodes -contains $exitCode) {
Exit 0
}
Exit $exitCode

choco-package-list-backup solves your Chocolatey migration and package re-installation problems!
choco-package-list-backup (CPLB) is a script I wrote that will backup the list of your currently installed Chocolatey packages and save them to a PACKAGES.CONFIG file. You can then use that PACKAGES.CONFIG file to re-install all your packages on another computer or even the same computer later if it crashes. "How can I re-install on the same computer if it crashed and I lost the PACKAGES.CONFIG file?" Thanks for asking! CPLB backs up your package list locally AND to multiple cloud services! But wait, there's more! CPBL also saves your pinned package info. But wait, there's even more! CPBL also saves a list of ALL your programs even if they weren't installed by Chocolatey. Pretty darn cool huh?
FEATURES:
- CPLB supports saving PACKAGES.CONFIG to all of the following:
- your local Documents folder
- your Active Directory assigned HOMESHARE
- Box
- Dropbox Personal and Business
- Google Drive and Drive File Stream
- iCloudDrive
- Microsoft OneDrive (free, paid consumer, and corporate)
- NETGEAR ReadyCLOUD
- Nextcloud
- ownCloud
- Resilio Sync
- Seafile
- TonidoSync
- A custom location of your choice
- C:\Users\Public\Documents when run from system account
- CPLB runs on install to make sure you have backup(s) right now!
- CPLB backups every Monday at 6 AM in the background to C:\Users\Public\Documents. Set it and forget it!
- CPLB supports copying InstChoco - The ULTIMATE Chocolatey and Chocolatey packages (re)installer! to your PACKAGES.CONFIG backup location(s) for the fastest way ever to reinstall Chocolatey and your Chocolatey packages! (Or migrate!)
- CPLB supports backing up PERSISTENTPACKAGES.CONFIG if you are using Choco Persistent Packages.
- CPLB integrates with Chocolatey Shortcuts.
- CPLB saves in computer (name) specific folders so you can backup your Chocolatey package list from multiple computers to the same cloud destination(s). No confusion over what computer gets what packages!
- CPLB saves a list of all your installed programs (AllProgramsList.txt) whether they were installed by Chocolatey or not.
- CPLB saves your pinned information to pins.bat for easy re-pinning packages.
- CPLB is in your path and ready to run.
- CPLB is configurable. You can: (continued in Release Notes)

Log in or click on link to see number of positives.
In cases where actual malware is found, the packages are subject to removal. Software sometimes has false positives. Moderators do not necessarily validate the safety of the underlying software, only that a package retrieves software from the official distribution point and/or validate embedded software against official distribution point (where distribution rights allow redistribution).
Chocolatey Pro provides runtime protection from possible malware.

- CPLB is configurable. You can:
- configure which locations you want or don't want to save to (default=all the locations found except the custom location)
- configure to save package version information or not (default=false)
- configure to save package title and summary information or not (default=false)
- configure to append a date to the saved packages.config, AllProgramsList.txt, and pins.bat files(default=false)
- configure what folder to save to (default=ChocolateyPackageListBackup)
- easily add a custom location by editing CustomPath and UseCustomPath in the .config file
- configure to save a list of all your installed Windows programs whether installed by Chocolatey or not to AllProgramsList.txt (default=true)
OPTIONAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
- choco install choco-package-list-backup --params "'/ONSTART:TRUE'" - scheduled task to run at boot instead of at a scheduled time
- choco install choco-package-list-backup --params "'/NOTASK:TRUE'" - won't configure a scheduled task
- choco install choco-package-list-backup --params "'/NORUN:TRUE'" - won't run the script upon install (let's you configure before first run)
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Edit C:\tools\BCURRAN3\choco-package-list-backup.config to customize your backup(s). It's easy, there are comments. Run CPLB or CHOCO-PACKAGE-LIST-BACKUP -EditConfig
- From PowerShell or the Command Prompt, type CPLB or CHOCO-PACKAGE-LIST-BACKUP to backup your Chocolatey packages list.
- From Windows, click Chocolatey Package List Backup in the Windows Start Menu or Package List Backup inside the Chocolatey folder if Chocolatey Shortcuts is installed.
CHANGELOG:
- 2022.02.06 - All existing files now renamed with .bak before creating new versions. This backup is useful during migrations where the files could get overwritten during install of CPLB on a new computer. (https://github.com/bcurran3/ChocolateyPackages/issues/285)
- 2021.09.25 - Improved OneDrive support while running under SYSTEM and handling of a missing config file.
- 2021.09.22 - Add Box Drive support. Add defaults incase of corrupt or missing choco-package-list-backup.config. Add new ONSTART and ATSTARTUP paremeters to run at boot instead of a scheduled time.
- 2021.05.10 - Speed optimations by TheCakeIsNaOH - Thanks!
- 2021.04.08 - Fixed missing UseCustomPath2 variable import. Thanks matteotrubini! Removed duplication of "shim" creation.
- 2021.03.22 - Added 2nd custom path option, added saved arguments option thanks to TheCakeIsNaOH, added pre and post processing option
- 2021.03.15 - Added NORUN/DONTRUN install option (choco install choco-package-list-backup --params "'/NORUN:TRUE'".)
- 2021.03.14 - Fixed wrong command in scheduled task. Fixed saving to C:\Users\Public\Documents. Fixed problem when SaveTitleSummary is set to true and there is no chocolatey.nuspec file to get values from. Added ability to set default user profile. Added start/finished logging. Added NOTASK/NOSCHEDULE install option (choco install choco-package-list-backup --params "'/NOTASK:TRUE'".) Minor other changes.
- 2020.04.06 - Better error handling when $env:ChocolateyToolsLocation is not defined. (Usually due to running under a different account than installed from.)Acronymized CPLB.cmd added for command line running.
- 2019.08.27 - can now put title and summary info into the packages.config file, new -EditConfig parameter to edit the config file, Now works from Command Prompt as well as PowerShell, script installation endpoint changed, config file renamed from .xml to .config
- 2019.07.02 - now saves OneDrive backups to free, paid, and corporate folders
- 2019.06.27 - now backups the config file, can now also make archival versions of pins.bat, edited config comments to not add quotes to custom path.
- 2019.01.31 - file saving functions re-written and optimized, check for errors caused by other Chocolatey instances
- 2019.01.29 - fixed bug where iCloudDrive preference wasn't checked correctly, thanks sandscap-sc!
- 2019.01.24 - now saves your pinned package information to pins.bat, added saving to c:\Users\Public when run from system account (e.g. scheduled task), fixed error attempting to create files under system account Documents folder which doesn't exist, packages.config now properly UTF-8 encoded, speed optimizations, minor cosmetic changes

- 2018.08.23 - Added ownCloud support and save all programs list feature
- 2018.06.21 - Added scheduled task to run every Monday at 6 AM. AppendDate option now saves packages.config AND a packages_date.config. This makes the AppendDate option more useful for a nearline packages.config and archival snapshots as well as fixing compatibility with InstChoco.
- 2018.05.19 - OneDrive and shortcut creation bugs fixed, minor cosmetic changes
- 2018.05.17 - added iCloudDrive support
