Question:
I’ve installed Firefox using Chocolatey to the different install directoryC:\Software\Firefox
with the following command: choco install firefox --params "/InstallDir:C:\Software\Firefox"
When upgrading Firefox via
choco upgrade firefox
, the Firefox installation gets moved from C:\Software\Firefox
to the Firefox default C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
.Can I somehow work around this behavior so that my custom install directory gets preserved even on
choco upgrade
?Thanks!
Answer:
I had to enable the Chocolatey featureuseRememberedArgumentsForUpgrades
with the following command:choco feature enable --name=useRememberedArgumentsForUpgrades
After this, the install directory was preserved even when calling choco upgrade
.If you have better answer, please add a comment about this, thank you!
