# INSTALLDIR
# The path and folder in which Horizon Client is installed. For example:
# INSTALLDIR=""D:\abc\my folder""
# default is %ProgramFiles%VMware\VMware Horizon View Client
# The sets of double quotes that enclose the path enable the installer to interpret the space as a valid part of the path.
# RUN ON CMD.exe with Admin
choco install vmware-horizon-client -ia "INSTALLDIR=""D:\installs\VMWare"""
choco install git.install -ia "/DIR="D:\installs\Git""
choco install virtualbox -ia "INSTALLDIR=""D:\installs\VirtualBox"""

Updated for Catalina and mainly for Music Sequencing https://github.com/matthewcosgrove/macos-bootstrap
#!/bin/bash
# STEP 1: Mount bootable USB and clean up disks
# IMPORTANT: Catalina now introduces a different approach to Disks/Volumes: https://eclecticlight.co/2019/12/17/how-clean-re-installs-change-in-catalina/
# Erase everything for a proper clean install and then create a new GUID Partition Apple_APFS volume (equivalent to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqfqcwmHowc&ab_channel=AjudaAqui)
# Can all be done through Disk Utility rather than terminal diskutil. You just need to create at least one volume otherwise the installer will not see the disk
# STEP 2: Install Catalina from bootable USB
# STEP 3: Download this gist from UI of GitHub "Download Zip
