choco-outdated: Ignore pinned packages in the output.
$ choco outdated --ignore-pinned
try on your machine

The command "choco outdated --ignore-pinned" is used with the package manager called Chocolatey (or choco) to list all outdated packages installed on the system, ignoring any packages that have been pinned.

Here is an explanation of each part of the command:

  • "choco": This is the command line executable for Chocolatey, which is a package manager for Windows.
  • "outdated": This is a command within Chocolatey that lists all the outdated packages installed on the system.
  • "--ignore-pinned": This is an optional parameter that tells Chocolatey to exclude any packages that have been "pinned." When a package is pinned, it means that Chocolatey should not automatically update it to the latest version, even if it is outdated.

By using this command, you can get a list of all the outdated packages on your system, excluding any packages that have been manually pinned to a particular version.
