+## FAQ
+
+### Why not just use installers
+
+Package management is not just convenient for installing, you can also upgrade all your packages with `choco upgrade PACKAGENAME`!
+
+If you use ChocolateyGUI, you can check see all your installed packages, which ones have upgrades available and update all of them with one click!
+
+### What if I need particular options
+
+Some packages (like `php`) have special flags (like `/DontAddToPath`).
