A problem is that it doesn't support Windows XP. Which might seem not important in 2021, but it is: XP is the last DRM free Windows version, so some power users are sticking to it.
And why would that prevent ccextractor from releasing on chocolatey? Chocolatey can be automated based on how the packages are currently being released. So if the packagers release as they are now (including XP support) and chocolatey auto-updates on the repo, then all that's gained is easier installation and updating for Windows 7+.
@rlaphoenix Is right, there's no reason why we couldn't also publish to Chocolatey. We just need someone to update the GH Actions workflows to do this in an automated way for us.

It would be amazing to get this package on Chocolatey. I see you recently tried an InstallShield approach which seemingly got canned. So it's a perfect time to try out Chocolatey since it has the potential for the InstallShield's purpose, but without the hassle.
