From what I can see the uninstalling of applications is already happening asynchronously.
What settings or other options were you thinking of parallelizing?

COMMENT: Please don't try to parallel Chocolatey commands. Chocolatey is not currently multiple instance friendly. I believe this capability has been added to the 1.0 milestone. chocolatey/choco#1579

bcurran3 (@bcurran3). A ton of our commands are not Chocolatey.

Completely understood. Just throwing it out there before anyone gets the wild idea of running choco.exe in multiple Start-Process jobs!

Great idea and thanks for the heads up. I didn’t know about choco not being able to do parallel (then again, parallel installing tends to not be a good idea)
