Profile Component Parameters

The following section describes the parameters used by the individual component in the profile.

Parameter	Required	Description
PackageName	Yes	The logical name of the package that will be registered with the Virtual Client runtime. This name can be used by other profile components to reference the installation parent directory location for Chocolatey.
Scenario	No	A name/identifier for the specific component in the profile. This is used for telemetry purposes only with components in dependency sections of the profile (i.e. cannot be used with --scenarios option on the command line).
