How do I update all Chocolatey packages except one?
cup all -y
is used to update all Chocolatey packages at boot. At the moment there is an issue in the latest version of VirtualBox, and I want to avoid that this package is updated at boot while the other packages need to be updated.
Attempt to solve the issue
I have checked the help function of the command:
C:>cup all -h
Chocolatey v0.9.9.8
Upgrade Command
Upgrades a package or a list of packages. Some may prefer to use `cup`
as a shortcut for `choco upgrade`.
Usage
choco upgrade <pkg|all> [<pkg2> <pkgN>] [<options/switches>]
cup <pkg|all> [<pkg2> <pkgN>] [<options/switches>]
NOTE: `all` is a special package keyword that will allow you to upgrade
all currently installed packages.
Examples
choco upgrade chocolatey
choco upgrade notepadplusplus googlechrome atom 7zip
choco upgrade notepadplusplus googlechrome atom 7zip -dvfy
choco upgrade git --params="/GitAndUnixToolsOnPath /NoAutoCrlf" -y
choco upgrade nodejs.install --version 0.10.35
choco upgrade git -s "https://somewhere/out/there"
choco upgrade git -s "https://somewhere/protected" -u user -p pass
Options and Switches
NOTE: Options and switches apply to all items passed, so if you are
installing multiple packages, and you use `--version=1.0.0`, it is
going to look for and try to install version 1.0.0 of every package
passed. So please split out multiple package calls when wanting to
pass specific options.

You have two options: pin or exclude items at runtime.
Pin Packages to Suppress Upgrades
You can pin any program you don't want updated.
Type choco pin -h
for more details. If that command doesn't give you anything, please upgrade Chocolatey to at least 0.9.9.x.
Pin Command
Pin a package to suppress upgrades.
This is especially helpful when running
choco upgrade
for all
packages, as it will automatically skip those packages. Another
alternative ischoco upgrade --except="pkg1,pk2"
.
Usage
choco pin [list]|add|remove [<options/switches>]
Examples
choco pin
choco pin list
choco pin add -n=git
choco pin add -n=git --version 1.2.3
C4B: choco pin add -n=git --version 1.2.3 --reason "'others may need to review'"
choco pin remove --name git
Exclude Packages At Runtime
Sometimes you just simply want to exclude items you would normally include in upgrades. You don't want pins as those are meant to live longer than a single command run. That is where the Exclude
option comes in to your upgrade command.
As of Chocolatey v0.9.10, when calling upgrade, you can pass the optional --except
as a switch for upgrade. An example would be choco upgrade all --except="'conemu'"
.
