Chocolatey is a package manager for windows, allowing you to install apps with a single command. This is how you install git using chocolatey: choco install git

See github repo

Usage

First install Chocolatey using cmd

Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force; [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol -bor 3072; iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))

After start cmd.exe as administrator and run install.bat.

You can simply switch from manual installation to chocolatey, because chocolatey uses the installers provided by the software vendors. They should be capabale to recognize an existing installation.

Run update-all.bat from time to time to ensure that all packages are up to date.

Give choco.exe /? a shot (or choco.exe -h). For specific commands, add the command and then the help switch e.g. choco.exe install -h.
