Cache Command

WARNING: This command was introduced in Chocolatey CLI v2.1.0

Get the statistics of what Chocolatey CLI has cached or clear any cached
items in the current context.

The behavior of this command will vary depending on whether it is running in an elevated context or not.
Statistics and removing cached items will always happen on the User HTTP Cache.
However, the System HTTP Cache will only be considered if running in an elevated context.

Examples

    choco cache
    choco cache list
    choco cache remove

 write proper scripts and integrations.
