What Chocolatey packages do you install?

For upgrading, I have a powershell script applied via Atera (testing) or scheduled task
I have it upgrade chocolatey first just to be safe. there were issues with things when they added the new checksum features between 0.9 and 0.10

If you replace
installwithupgradeit will upgrade if it is there, if it is not there, it will install it.I hate that type of functionality.
How would you preform updates on a machine in that case?
You just use choco upgrade all -y to update everything that's installed.

Oh they don't, that makes more sense.
