I won’t answer since I had no idea what the show content would do and pressed it and saw the answer :). Also to be quite honest I did not know :). Next time I will not press show content :)

b) Is the correct answer. While PowerShell 3 or higher is required for installation directly from the Chocolatey Community Repository, you could install Chocolatey from a local repository or file share without the need of TLS 1.2

See: https://docs.chocolatey.org/en-us/choco/setup#requirements / https://docs.chocolatey.org/en-us/choco/setup#installing-with-restricted-tls / https://docs.chocolatey.org/en-us/choco/setup#install-downloaded-nuget-package-from-powershell 

 

Next question will be on Monday
