Setting Up a New PC With Chocolatey

Thanks for the pointer to Chocolatey.

I'm not a Windows user but I do keep a Windows 7 Enterprise VM on my laptop that I occasionally need to fire up. Every one else at company uses Windows exclusively, however.

I have typically used Ninite to "bootstrap" a new Windows box (on those rare occasions I've needed to) but this looks like something that can be used on an ongoing basis and that I can recommend to my co-workers (especially w/ the available GUI).

I'm still looking over the site and reading about Chocolatey so I'm sure I'll find the answer at some point, but does handle software updates as well (i.e. "apt-get update", since it compares itself to apt-get)?

Edit: Yes, it can (see "cup all").
