UnpackSelf Command (choco unpackself)

This will unpack files needed by choco. It will overwrite existing files only if --force is specified.

NOTE: This command should only be used when installing Chocolatey, not during normal operation.

Options and Switches

NOTE: Options and switches apply to all items passed, so if you are running a command like install that allows 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.

Includes [[default options/switches|CommandsReference#default-options-and-switches]] (included below for completeness).
