For anyone interested! (chocolatey package)
#1
Lightbulb 
For anyone interested and uses chocolatey to install programs I have set up a package for CentBrowser located here https://chocolatey.org/packages/CentBrowser things are automated so the chocolatey package should always be up to date (within 6 hours of an update).


note to devs: I couldn't find a license anywhere on your site, dunno if you have one or not, if you do can you kindly point me in the direction of where it is?

Thanks for your work.
We don't have a license currently, may have one in the future.
Chromium itself is released under the BSD license.

Not a problem, nice to have one more place to get CentBrowser from (once things have been verified completely on chocolatey xD) Smile I've been wanting to set up CentBrowser on chocolatey for a while now just never had the time to till recently, and ah alright will keep an eye out for one if you ever decide to create a license.

I do have another question as well, is there any argument for a silent uninstall? (currently don't have any sort of uninstallation method setup for chocolatey version of centbrowser) I currently have installation completely silent, thanks to me finding the argument "----cb-auto-update" through forum search but I'd be nice to have both installation and uninstallation silent but I can't seem to find an argument for it yet.

Silent uninstallation is not supported for now.
We can add some command line to support it if needed.

Don't need a silent uninstallation command line support anymore now, as I found out that using something like "--uninstall --force-uninstall" on the installer in the application folder for centbrowser actually makes it silent, only thing I haven't gotten figured out yet is to get it to delete the user data folder as well but it's fine for the time being.

I'm a little annoyed at myself though, spent pretty much all day today working on the uninstaller and every time I pushed a package on up to chocolatey for it, it kept failing the automated tests for the uninstall portion which made me think I kept getting it wrong so I spent hours changing things multiple times to get it to work to the point that I eventually just broke down and installed a VM to test packages before pushing them and I ended up learning I had things correct the first time around for the uninstallation stuff it's just the automated tests that fail for uninstallation but real world tests all passed >..< Thankfully the uninstallation portion of the tests failing is allowed is for the automated tests.

Now supports beta builds as well.

I'm still waiting on packages to get approved by mods, but you can still use them without them being approved.

On second thought about this, is it possible to provide a command line to do the silent uninstall? For some reason even though centbrowser does seem to uninstall it still seems to cause issues with the uninstaller (ontop of it throwing an error exit code 19 with the uninstall) so I think a custom command line for silent uninstallation for centbrowser would possibly be better in the long run of things unless you guys know how to fix exit code 19? as doing a google search doesn't seem to return anything :s

Well, we will look into it.
May support silent uninstall if it is not so complicated.
And you can take a look at this article(uninstall using wmic):

alright thanks, and I don't think I can use wmic as everything has to be done through powershell :x I did finally find an article on some more exit codes and it may look like exit code 19 is due to "The media is write protected" possibly (maybe because centbrowser opens up after install and I didn't have a way to force it to close in powershell yet (I do now) so some stuff doesn't get deleted completely (like the User Data folder)). I haven't been able to test this to see if this is the actual issue as I'm not able to run a VM anymore sadly :/ and I have centbrowser setup in ways that testing it on my main machine would be a pain in the butt >.< so just waiting on next release to drop.
