choco-source: Enable a package source.
$ choco source enable --name ${name}
try on your machine

This command is used in Windows PowerShell to enable a Chocolatey package source.

Here's the breakdown of the command components:

  • The "choco" part indicates the command line tool Chocolatey, which is used for package management on Windows.
  • "source" is a subcommand that specifies the operation to be performed on package sources.
  • "enable" is another subcommand that specifies that you want to enable a package source.
  • "--name" is a flag used to specify the name of the package source.
  • "${name}" is a placeholder indicating that you should replace it with the actual name of the package source you want to enable.

So, by running this command and replacing "${name}" with the desired package source name, you will enable that package source for use with Chocolatey.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
