Deployment Method:
NOTE
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 chocolatey-preinstaller-checks.extension --internalize --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 chocolatey-preinstaller-checks.extension -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" [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 chocolatey-preinstaller-checks.extension -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'"
$exitCode = $LASTEXITCODE
Write-Verbose "Exit code was $exitCode"
$validExitCodes = @(0, 1605, 1614, 1641, 3010)
if ($validExitCodes -contains $exitCode) {
Exit 0
}
Exit $exitCode

Description
choco://chocolatey-preinstaller-checks.extension
To use choco:// protocol URLs, install (unofficial) choco:// Protocol support
Chocolatey Preinstaller Checks Extension is a Chocolatey extension that intercepts and runs checks before installing or uninstalling a program. This extension will start working automatically once installed and does NOT need to be implemented by package creators/maintainers. Chocolatey Preinstaller Checks Extension is meant to be installed and used directly by Chocolatey end users.
PURPOSE:
This extension attempts to head off problems related to:
- https://github.com/chocolatey/choco/issues/544
- https://github.com/chocolatey/choco/issues/619
- https://github.com/chocolatey/choco/issues/761
- https://github.com/chocolatey/choco/issues/780
- https://github.com/chocolatey/choco/issues/1526
- https://github.com/chocolatey/choco/issues/1548
- https://github.com/chocolatey/choco/issues/1579
- and possibly others until such time that Chocolatey natively handles these issues better and this extension becomes moot. (Rumored to be 1.0.0 milestone)
Chocolatey Preinstaller Checks Extension's main purpose is to fend off specific types of problems before they occur. Currently Chocolatey (choco.exe) is not multi-instance friendly. If you try to install or uninstall packages using choco.exe in two Command Prompts at the same time, strange (bad!) things may occur. Chocolatey Preinstaller Checks Extension can avoid these strange (bad!) things by intercepting calls to install and uninstall programs and warn about the situation, wait for previous instances to finish, or abort; totally configurable. Chocolatey Preinstaller Checks Extension also checks Windows Installer to see if it's busy and will warn, make MSI installer and uninstaller programs wait until Windows Installer has finished processing the other program, or abort. Chocolatey Preinstaller Checks Extension only runs before PROGRAM installations and uninstallations. It does not perform any functions related to portable packages or other choco commands.
FEATURES:
- Chocolatey Preinstaller Checks Extension is completely configurable to warn, wait, or abort.
- Chocolatey Preinstaller Checks Extension will check if there is a pending reboot and warn you about it if so.
- Chocolatey Preinstaller Checks Extension will check if Windows Installer is already running and warn, wait for it to finish, or abort.
- Chocolatey Preinstaller Checks Extension will check if there are instances of choco.exe already running and warn, wait for it to finish, or abort.

Release Notes
- If two instances of choco.exe run within 5 seconds (or configured check time) of each other, they will most likely loop forever or until commandExecutionTimeoutSeconds.
CHANGE LOG:
- 0.0.2.3 Removed Chocolatey dependency as Chocoaltey v1.0 has been released and missed the 1.x milestone of becoming multi-instance aware and no new known goal.
- 0.0.2.1 Added dependencies to package, no updates to actual extension.
- 0.0.2 - Added conditional handling options for each of the three checks, completely configurable (See C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\extensions\chocolatey-preinstaller-checks\Chocolatey-Preinstaller-Checks.xml). Now compatible with Chocolatey Toast Notifications Extension. Get-chocoCounts replaced by Get-chocoInstanceCounts (Thanks by Michel Buczynski AKA MikeBoutch!) for Chocolatey Self Service Agent compatibility. Default 30 second pause changed to 5 seconds and cosmetically better display.
- 0.0.1 - initial release
ROADMAP:
- Option to abort install/uninstall if PendingRebootStatus is true.
- Option to abort after a configurable amount of time waiting for other competing processes to finish.
Dependencies
-
- powershell (≥ 3.0)
