Describe the new feature

Provide an option in the settings to stop auto installing chocolatey (in %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\WingetUI\choco-cli)
Also provide a flag for the installer that stop installing it

Describe how this new feature could help users.

I personally don't use chocolatey at all and see no use of it
Having an environment variable constantly recreated is also not so good, as for each update of WingetUI I have to remove that folder and the env variable

That is the first thing I do after Installing WingetUI, disabling chocolatey.

Out of curiosity, since this looks to be upcoming and confirmed patch, when it is rolled out will the update take care of a "reset" as far as Chocolatey? I mean, will it strip out the auto-install or will a manual re-install of WinGetUI entirely be required??

[marticliment]

Upgrading will not delete anything, it would be very dangerous. You will need to remove it manually, and the installer shouldn't add the files manually anymore if chocolatey is not selected as a component.

How about uninstalling when you disable chocolatey, and installing when you enable it?

Also can you do the same thing with Winget? I want to use system Winget, not something inside WingetUI.

[marticliment]

New installers will allow to not install chocolatey. If Chocolatey is already installed it will NOT be removed
