[ferventcoder]

Wait, this might be in the package itself... looking.

[ferventcoder]

Yep, it's in the package - https://github.com/ferventcoder/chocolatey-packages/blob/master/automatic/sysinternals/tools/chocolateyInstall.ps1#L33-L40

The helper in choco would work correctly, if this package were using it. Ugh

[ferventcoder]

@chrissimon-au by the way, for full logs, we like both debug and verbose output - so add -dv to the args. We don't need it for this package as we have some things to fix. Thanks!

[chrissimon-au]

No problems - will remember for the future - thanks!

[ferventcoder]

This should now be fixed completely in the new version.

[ferventcoder]

Let me know if it is not.
