You either hit a glitch on Chocolatey or there's something wrong with your system. Here's what I see:

PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> choco install -y mkcert
Chocolatey v0.10.15
Installing the following packages:
mkcert
By installing you accept licenses for the packages.

mkcert v1.4.2 [Approved]
mkcert package files install completed. Performing other installation steps.
 ShimGen has successfully created a shim for mkcert.exe
 The install of mkcert was successful.
  Software install location not explicitly set, could be in package or
  default install location if installer.

I recommend uninstalling and reinstalling mkcert; consider reinstalling chocolatey if this continues. But everything is working fine.

Thanks @rfay for checking. If the issue persists @Brolly0204 you might want to open an issue with Chocolatey, we don't manage that package directly.
