Introduction
Chocolatey is a package manager for Windows. It is a command-line tool that allows you to install, upgrade, and uninstall software packages on your system. I have been using Chocolatey for a while now, and I find it to be a great tool for managing software packages on Windows.
List Installed Packages
If you wish to list all the Chocolatey packages installed on your system, you can use the following command:
choco list
Note: you may come across the
choco list --local-only
command else where on the internet. Starting from chocolatey version 2.0.0 (released on May 30, 2023), you only need to usechoco list
without any additional flags, as the--local-only
option will no longer be needed (it’s being deprecated). 1
