I'm trying to install Chromium with Chocolatey: choco install -y chromium
I get the following output:
Installing the following packages:
chromium
By installing, you accept licenses for the packages.
Progress: Downloading chromium 104.0.5112.102... 100%
chromium v104.0.5112.102 [Approved]
chromium package files install completed. Performing other installation steps.
Chromium 104.0.5112.102 is already installed.
Environment Vars (like PATH) have changed. Close/reopen your shell to
see the changes (or in powershell/cmd.exe just type `refreshenv`).
The install of chromium was successful.
Software installed to 'C:\Program Files\Chromium\Application'
Chocolatey installed 1/1 packages.
See the log for details (C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\logs\chocolatey.log).
However, no folder is created for the Chromium application in C:\Program Files. I am getting a new installation of the NuGet for Chromium in C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\lib\chromium.
I'm doing this as part of an attempt to automate a Chromium installation, so I've been messing around with lots of different chromium versions and force installs. The line Chromium 104.0.5112.102 is already installed. looks pretty suspect, as does the note in the Chocolatey chromium page that says that sometimes the package will be installed on %localappdata%\Chromium instead, but I can't find chromium installed in C:\Users\jkatofsky\AppData\Local either.
I feel like the issue is just within reach, but I can't figure it out. Any ideas?
Doing choco uninstall -n --skipautouninstaller chromium and going to Control Panel -> Programs -> Uninstall a program then uninstalling Chromium, and getting rid of it from the registry when prompted, fixed things for me. The next choco install chromium worked as expected.
