'choco' command not recognized when run as administrator on Windows

问题

I installed Chocolatey as per the instructions on the website (https://chocolatey.org/install).

The 'choco' command works fine when I run it normally on cmd but returns the following error when run as administrator:

C:\WINDOWS\system32>choco install -y wget 7zip.commandline
'choco' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

The install choco install -y wget 7zip.commandline fails if not run as administrator.

How do I fix 'not recognized' error in admin cmd?

回答1:

First, ensure that you are using an administrative shell of command prompt(https://www.howtogeek.com/194041/how-to-open-the-command-prompt-as-administrator-in-windows-8.1/).

Copy the below text into the command prompt.

@"%SystemRoot%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe" -NoProfile -InputFormat None -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command "iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))" && SET "PATH=%PATH%;%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\chocolatey\bin"

Then press enter key from the keyboard. After few seconds you get complete info about current installation.
If you don't see any errors. Type choco or choco -? now.

First Open the Command prompt as administrator and then run -

@powershell -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command "iex ((new-object net.webclient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))" && SET PATH=%PATH%;%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\chocolatey\bin

And then restart the Command prompt, now choco is successfully installed

The choco environment variable has been altered. I ran into a similar problem when I tried setting env variable for Java SDK, but I was quick to recognize it when I ran the commands presented to me in the documentation which completely overwrites my env Path variable.

If you are sure you've choco installed. Check your System variables and look for Path variable if it has some values like C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\choco.exe;C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\bin if not add it.

And you can save you time by installing it. Installing via cmd line

Powershell:

Copy and Paste the code below to your PowerShell

Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force; iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))

OR Window CMD.exe:

@"%SystemRoot%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe" -NoProfile -InputFormat None -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command "iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))" && SET "PATH=%PATH%;%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\chocolatey\bin"

After installation: run choco you see the version of chocolatey installed. Mine

Chocolatey v0.10.14
Please run 'choco -?' or 'choco <command> -?' for help menu.

hopefully this help read more

I was able to get the installation to work using C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\bin\choco.exe install -y wget 7zip.commandline. I'm still wondering why the choco command isn't working when cmd is run as administrator. I would appreciate any help. Cheers!

Hi for installing choco on your windows system, follow these steps:

First open cmd as admistrator.
copy this command in the cmd (as administrator):

@"%SystemRoot%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe"
-NoProfile -InputFormat None -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command "iex ((New-Object
System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))"
&& SET "PATH=%PATH%;%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\chocolatey\bin"

This will download the required dependency for choco and install it in your windows system.

For cross check run the choco command, for ex:

choco install -y nodejs.install python2 jdk8

Just correcting what @Krishnarjun Banoth has given in the answer:

powershell -NoProfile -InputFormat None -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command "iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))"

You don't have to add the PATH variable because choco will automatically add itself to PATH.

Open command prompt in administrator mode and run this command:

@"%SystemRoot%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe" -NoProfile -InputFormat None -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command " [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = 3072; iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))" && SET "PATH=%PATH%;%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\chocolatey\bin"
