Deployment Method: Individual Install, Upgrade, & Uninstall
To install wsl2host, run the following command from the command line or from PowerShell:
To upgrade wsl2host, run the following command from the command line or from PowerShell:
To uninstall wsl2host, run the following command from the command line or from PowerShell:
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 wsl2host --internalize --version=0.3.5 --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 wsl2host -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'0.3.5'" [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 wsl2host -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'0.3.5'"
$exitCode = $LASTEXITCODE
Write-Verbose "Exit code was $exitCode"
$validExitCodes = @(0, 1605, 1614, 1641, 3010)
if ($validExitCodes -contains $exitCode) {
Exit 0
}
Exit $exitCode

.SYNOPSIS
**NOTE:** Administrative Access Required when `-PathType 'Machine'.`
This puts a directory to the PATH environment variable of the
requested scope (Machine or User).
.DESCRIPTION
Removes path from target path scope. Removes multiple occurances (if they exist)
and all occurances with or without a trailing slash.
.NOTES
This command will assert UAC/Admin privileges on the machine if
`-PathType 'Machine'`.
This is used when the application/tool is not being linked by Chocolatey
(not in the lib folder).
.INPUTS
None
.OUTPUTS
None
.PARAMETER PathToUninstall
The full path to a location to remove from the PATH.
.PARAMETER PathType
Which PATH to remove it from. If specifying `Machine`, this requires admin
privileges to run correctly.
.PARAMETER IgnoredArguments
Allows splatting with arguments that do not apply. Do not use directly.
.EXAMPLE
Uninstall-ChocolateyPath -PathToUninstall "$($env:SystemDrive)\tools\gittfs"
.EXAMPLE
Uninstall-ChocolateyPath "$($env:SystemDrive)\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5\bin" -PathType 'Machine'

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).
