Compatibility

AnyPackage.Chocolatey works with PowerShell for both FullCLR/'Desktop' (ex 5.1) and CoreCLR (ex: 7.0.1), though Chocolatey itself still requires FullCLR.

Users must upgrade to v0.1.0 or higher of this provider module prior to the release of Chocolatey v2 to ensure continued compatibility.

Save a package

Save-Package is not supported with the AnyPackage.Chocolatey provider, due to Chocolatey not supporting package downloads without special licensing.
