First you will go to the Chocolatey program repository.

Example format needed.
Then once you have downloaded the installer linked at the top of this page. Unzip it to your desktop and run as administrator.
Copy and Paste your desired programs from the list you created into the user interface. Then click Convert, then Install now.
You can install one or one hundred program, and you can save the notepad where you built your app list and use it as a back up to make installing your favorite programs a breeze, or simplify the task of installing multiple programs on multiple computers.
The way I have set this up is it will attempt to remove any previous versions of the program you are attempting to install, so you can use it if you are having issues installing or removing a program in the normal manner.
Keep in mind that this a public repository and a very large one at that, so not all apps are up to date, but you can use Patch My Pc Free Home edition to check for any updates when you are done installing.
That's it simple enough this can save a lot of time, and the added benefit this tool will also automatically opt out of any extra toolbars any other bundled software.
