It\u2019s important to launch it with admin privileges because many packages won\u2019t install in a non-admin console, so this helps avoid potential issues.<\/p>\n<p>In the console, type <code>choco list NAME<\/code> (replace \u201cNAME\u201d with your search query). This will display a list of packages matching your query. Identify the exact <strong>name<\/strong> of the desired package. Then type <code>choco install NAME<\/code> (replace \u201cNAME\u201d with the exact name of the package), and Chocolatey will download and install it for you.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/batch-install-batch-update-windows-apps\/install-package-chocolatey.jpg\" width=\"1090\" height=\"602\" alt=\"Install a package using Chocolatey\"><\/figure>\n<h3>Chocolatey GUI<\/h3>\n<p>If you\u2019re a beginner or prefer a graphical interface, follow these steps: First, open the Start menu, search for \u201cChocolatey GUI\u201d, and launch it. In the interface, click on <strong>Chocolatey<\/strong> on the left, then enter your search query in the text field labeled <strong>Search<\/strong> and press <code>Enter<\/code>. The application will search for matching packages.<\/p>\n<p>After a few moments, Chocolatey GUI will display packages with similar names.

Therefore, we need to rely on Chocolatey for this task.<\/p>\n<h3>Chocolatey<\/h3>\n<p>In the Command Prompt, type <code>choco install NAME1 NAME2<\/code> to install multiple packages (replace \u201cNAME1\u201d with the name of the first package and so on). You can list as many packages as you need to install simultaneously. However, ensure you provide the correct package names; otherwise, Chocolatey may return an error.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/batch-install-batch-update-windows-apps\/install-multiple-packages-chocolatey.jpg\" width=\"1090\" height=\"602\" alt=\"Install multiple packages using Chocolatey\"><\/figure>\n<h2>Update a Single Package<\/h2>\n<p>Chocolatey GUI is efficient at updating packages, just as it is with installing them.
