Windows Installer became the standard technology for deploying software in enterprises and it is supported by Group Policy and Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM). For end users, the Microsoft Store partly addresses the problem because apps can be installed in one click and updates are managed for the user. But until recently, there has been no built-in way to do the same in Windows. In Linux, it is easy to install an application using apt-get or Yum from the command line. Windows has long been a second-class citizen when it comes to package managers. In today’s Ask the Admin, I’ll look at the Chocolatey package manager for Windows, what it does, and how it can simplify software deployment on servers and end-user devices.
