2. Launching the application might prompt a User Account Control pop-up, asking you to confirm if you want to allow the software to make changes to your device. Select 'Yes'.



3. The Chocolatey user interface should now open. Click on 'UMCG' on the left side of the window to navigate to the available software packages. 



4. See image above. Select the software package you wish to install by double-clicking on the icon. In this example Adobe Acrobat Reader will be installed. Double click on the tile Adobe Acrobat Reader.




5. The new window (see the image above) will show some additional information about the software package, like the version number or a description. For installing, click on 'Install' in the bottom right corner of your window.

Note: Depending on the software it might take a short while for the installation to start. The installation will work like a regular installation from a downloaded .exe or similar file.
