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 chrlauncher.portable --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 chrlauncher.portable -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 chrlauncher.portable -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

This package is likely a meta/virtual (*) or an installer (*.install) or portable (*.portable) application package.
- Meta/virtual (*) - has a dependency on the *.install or the *.portable package - it is provided for discoverability and for other packages to take a dependency on.
- Portable (*.portable/*.commandline (deprecated naming convention)/*.tool (deprecated naming convention)) - usually zips or archives that require no administrative access to install.
- Install (*.install/*.app (deprecated naming convention)) - uses native installers, usually requires administrative access to install.

A small and very fast portable launcher and updater for Chromium.
This package:
- installs chrlauncher, not Chromium.
- will set chrlauncher to download/install/update Chromium without the need for admin rights.
- by default, sets the install location for Chromium to be the per-user, %APPDATA% directory. Use the
/Shared
package parameter (below) to make the Chromium install location be in the chrlauncher directory and have Chromium (and all its settings) shared among all users.
Note
Other (system-wide) chrlauncher settings can be modified in the chrlauncher.ini
file located in the same directory as the target of the Chromium Launcher desktop shortcut. Some options include:
- Auto download updates
- Show a chrlauncher window when updating (default is a tray icon only)
- Type of Chromium build
- Update check period
Package Parameters
The following package parameters can be set:
/KeepSettings
- Maintain all settings from an existing, previous version, package installation. (No check for compatibility.)/Default
- Make chrlauncher the default "browser". This option requires installing with admin rights./Shared
- Share the Chromium install among all users./Type:
<build> - Set chrlauncher to use a specific Chromium build:- dev-official - official development builds from snapshots repository
- dev-codecs-sync - (default) unofficial development builds with codecs
- stable-codecs-sync - unofficial stable builds with codecs
- dev-codecs-nosync - unofficial development builds with codecs and without google services
- stable-codecs-nosync - unofficial stable builds with codecs and without google services
- ungoogled-chromium - unofficial builds without google integration and enhanced privacy
(Adjust the chrlauncher.ini
file to manually change the build after installation)
These parameters can be passed to the installer with the use of -params
.
For example:
choco install chrlauncher.portable -params '"/Default /KeepSettings"'
choco install chrlauncher.portable -params '"/Type:stable-codecs-sync"'
$ErrorActionPreference = 'Stop' # stop on all errors
# If ChrLauncher was made the default browser, turn that off
if (Test-Path 'HKLM:\Software\Clients\StartMenuInternet\chrlauncher') {
$version = (get-childitem -filter "chrlauncher*" |
Where-Object {$_.psiscontainer} |
ForEach-Object {[version]($_.name -replace 'chrlauncher','')} |
Sort-Object)[-1]
$InstallDir = join-path $env:ChocolateyPackageFolder "chrlauncher$($version.tostring())"
$BitLevel = Get-ProcessorBits
Write-Debug 'Removing registry keys that set chrlauncher as the default browser.'
$Regfile = Join-Path $InstallDir "$BitLevel\RegistryCleaner.reg"
regedit /s $Regfile
}
$shortcut = Join-Path ([System.Environment]::GetFolderPath('Desktop')) 'Chromium Launcher.lnk'
if ([System.IO.File]::Exists($shortcut)) {
Write-Debug 'Found the desktop shortcut. Deleting it...'
[System.IO.File]::Delete($shortcut)
}

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.
