try on your machine

The command "choco list --approved-only" is used in Chocolatey, a package manager for Windows. This command is used to list only the approved packages that can be installed or upgraded.

By adding the flag "--approved-only" to the "choco list" command, Chocolatey will filter the list of packages and display only the ones that have been explicitly approved. Approved packages are typically those that meet the organization's standards, security requirements, or have been tested and verified to work properly.

This command is particularly useful in organizations where there are specific policies for software installations. It helps to ensure that only approved packages are available for installation or upgrade, reducing the risk of unauthorized or potentially harmful software being installed on the system.
