What is Expected?

The expectation is for the installation to complete without errors.

How Did You Get This To Happen?

My PC attempted to update to PowerShell 7.4.6 yesterday and failed. This resulted in the removal of PowerShell 7 from my PC. As a part of the troubleshooting, I removed the C:\ProgramData\chocolatey folder. I finally was successful with installing PowerShell 7.4.6 and attempted to reinstall Chocolatey. Below is the output of the attempt.

It appears the MS has updated the file version of the WindowsBase.dll to 8.0.1024.46810 and I believe that this is why the install is failing.

I have tried on a fully patched Windows 11 system with PowerShell 7.4.6 installed, and the Chocolatey installation worked without issue. This feels like an environment issue, but I'm not sure what aspect of the environment might be causing it. If you try with Windows PowerShell do you encounter the same issues?

It appears to have completed with errors. What version of WindowsBase.dll is on your PC?

The WindowsBase.dll from PowerShell 7.4.6 is the same version that you have. Looking at the errors and where it stopped in both instances, it looks like the line that is causing issues is: Microsoft.PowerShell.Archive\Expand-Archive -Path $file -DestinationPath $tempDir -Force. Out of curiosity: are you able to use Expand-Archive to unzip any other files on your system? Or perhaps view them with Windows Explorer?
