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 twinkle-tray --internalize --version=1.15.0-beta1 --pre --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 twinkle-tray -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'1.15.0-beta1'" --prerelease [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 twinkle-tray -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'1.15.0-beta1'" --prerelease
$exitCode = $LASTEXITCODE
Write-Verbose "Exit code was $exitCode"
$validExitCodes = @(0, 1605, 1614, 1641, 3010)
if ($validExitCodes -contains $exitCode) {
Exit 0
}
Exit $exitCode

Twinkle Tray lets you easily manage the brightness levels of multiple monitors. Even though Windows is capable of adjusting the backlight on most monitors, it typically doesn't support external monitors. Windows 10 & 11 also lack any ability to manage the brightness of multiple displays. This app inserts a new icon into your system tray, where you can click to have instant access to the brightness levels of all compatible displays.
Features
- Adds brightness sliders to the system tray, similar to the built-in Windows volume flyout.
- Seamlessly blends in with Windows 10 and Windows 11. Uses your Personalization settings to match your taskbar.
- Can automatically change monitor brightness depending on the time of day or when idle.
- Bind hotkeys to adjust the brightness of specific or all displays.
- Normalize backlight across different monitors.
- Control DDC/CI features such as contrast.
- Starts up with Windows.
Design & Personalization
Twinkle Tray will automatically adjust the look and feel to match your Windows version and preferences. Additional options are available to select the Windows version and theme of your choice.
Package Parameters
/NoShim
- Opt out of creating a shim, and removes any existing shim./Start
- Automatically start Twinkle Tray after installation completes.
Package Notes
This package may create a shim named twinkletray
to facilitate easier access to the command-line interface. However, shimgen
will create a GUI shim, which will not wait for the underlying process to exit by default. This may cause issues with displaying console output when using the command-line interface or viewing debug messages. Users requiring this functionality should pass the --shimgen-waitforexit
switch to ensure the shim behaves correctly.
For future upgrade operations, consider opting into Chocolatey's useRememberedArgumentsForUpgrades
feature to avoid having to pass the same arguments with each upgrade:
choco feature enable -n=useRememberedArgumentsForUpgrades
When using the /Start
package parameter, you may see a large CLIXML
block logged to stderr
. This is a known issue with Chocolatey's Start-ChocolateyProcessAsAdmin
cmdlet, and is not necessarily indicative of an error condition. Until this is addressed, you should ensure the failOnStandardError
feature is disabled while installing/upgrading this package.

VERIFICATION
Verification is intended to assist the Chocolatey moderators and community
in verifying that this package's contents are trustworthy.
The packaged Windows installer binary is available for independent download via the
Releases page on Twinkle Tray's GitHub repository. A download link for the packaged version
is included at the following URL:
https://github.com/xanderfrangos/twinkle-tray/releases/tag/v1.15.0-beta1
For convenience, this is a direct URL to the relevant asset:
https://github.com/xanderfrangos/twinkle-tray/releases/download/v1.15.0-beta1/Twinkle.Tray.v1.15.0-beta1.exe
The following PowerShell command will print a calculated SHA256 hash:
(Get-FileHash -Path Twinkle.Tray.v1.15.0-beta1.exe -Algorithm SHA256).Hash
This command should be executed against an independently downloaded binary, as well
as the copy distributed with the package. Both hash values should be identical. A
matching hash value should confirm that no corruption or tampering has occurred
during this package's generation process.
For reference, the following SHA256 hash was calculated during the package's automated creation:
BA88494AC5CB1BE118D4E0F2FB0DC9E6E4E7C25E3453728338B8A12B33C23E5F

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.
