Step-by-step:

1. Launch Chocolatey GUI. Open the GUI by choosing the Windows button on the left bottom of your screen and type GUI.

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. Select the software package you wish to install by double-clicking on the icon. In this example R will be installed. Double click on the tile R.



















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.
