About The Script

This script lets you quickly set up your Windows machine with Chocolatey and the packages you specify. It's perfect for quickly setting up fresh Windows installations with the software you need.

Getting Started

Follow these steps to use the script:

Prerequisites

1. PowerShell (Windows 7 SP1 and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 and higher comes with PowerShell pre-installed)

Setup

1. Clone this repo or download setup.ps1 and packages.txt files
2. Edit packages.txt and add the packages you want to install, one per line

Usage

Local Setup

1. Run PowerShell with administrator privileges
2. Navigate to the directory where you downloaded setup.ps1 and packages.txt
3. Run the following command:

.\setup.ps1 -local

Web Setup

If you have uploaded your edited setup.ps1 and packages.txt to a GitHub repository, you can run the setup directly from PowerShell with this command (change the url to your repo unless you want to download my choice of software):

Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force; iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lippielip/choco-quickstart/master/setup.ps1'))
