Checklist

  • I have verified this is the correct repository for opening this issue.
  • I have verified no other issues exist related to my problem.
  • I have verified this is not an issue for a specific package.
  • I have verified this issue is not security related.
  • I confirm I am using official, and not unofficial, or modified, Chocolatey products.

What You Are Seeing?

When running choco download, you get failures unless you are elevated - even though choco download should work as a normal user.

This also affects installations if the Chocolatey Install location is a non-restricted folder, but the cache folder is in a restricted folder.

What is Expected?

choco download should work regardless of elevation state.

How Did You Get This To Happen?

On a system with:

  • A Chocolatey for Business license
  • Chocolatey 2.2.0
  • Chocolatey.Extension 6.1.0
  • cacheLocation set to a restricted location
  1. Set cacheLocation to a restricted directory and run a command that uses the cache (e.g. choco config set cacheLocation --value $env:ChocolateyInstall\choco-cache; choco search cloudflared)
  2. Open a non-elevated terminal and change to a location you're happy to download a package to (though it doesn't really matter)
  3. Run choco download nexus-repository
  4. Observe output (included below)

Additionally, when running choco download with a cacheLocation that doesn't exist, there is a different bad error.

  1. Set cacheLocation to a restricted directory that doesn't exist (e.g. choco config set cacheLocation --value $env:ChocolateyInstall\choco-cache2)
  2. Open a non-elevated terminal and change to a location you're happy to download a package to (though it doesn't really matter)
  3. Run choco download nexus-repository
  4. Observe output (included below)
