Multiple duplicate lines in choco console UI (but not log file)

What You Are Seeing?

When installing or updating a package, the console often shows multiple (2 or 3) duplicates of the log messages that show after the Exporting function, Importing function, and Importing alias lines.

One example:

[INFO ] - VERBOSE: Refreshing environment variables from the registry.
[INFO ] - VERBOSE: Refreshing environment variables from the registry.
[INFO ] - VERBOSE: Refreshing environment variables from the registry.
[INFO ] - VERBOSE: Refreshing environment variables from the registry.
[INFO ] - Restricting write permissions to Administrators
[INFO ] - Restricting write permissions to Administrators
[INFO ] - Restricting write permissions to Administrators
[INFO ] - Restricting write permissions to Administrators
[INFO ] - We are setting up the Chocolatey package repository.
[INFO ] - We are setting up the Chocolatey package repository.
[INFO ] - We are setting up the Chocolatey package repository.
[INFO ] - We are setting up the Chocolatey package repository.

What is Expected?

Each line should only show up once.

How Did You Get This To Happen? (Steps to Reproduce)

1. Turn on “Show console output”.
2. Install or update any package.
3. Notice the ongoing log, especially after the “Exporting/Importing function” messages.

System Details

• OS Build: Windows 7
• Windows PowerShell version: The ChocolateyGUI inbuilt one
• Chocolatey version: The example I used above happened when upgrading from 1.0.1 to 1.1.0

Output Log

N/A - The log file correctly shows only one line for each message. This seems to be a UI problem only.

The duplicate lines increase every time you install Chocolatey GUI.

I’m not denying whether or not the above is true, but for interest I have just installed Chocolatey and Chocolatey-GUI onto a brand-new Windows 11 laptop, used Chocolatey-GUI to install Firefox and saw duplicate lines (2 lines) immediately.

This has been going on for years - duplicate output lines…
