A while ago, I bumped into problems updating UltraVNC through Chocolatey.
It is similar to issues with other packages I have seen in the past: sha256
hash mismatches of which the reported mismatch changes over time, though the version stays the same.
This was tracked down to the actual file download site now needing a correct HTTP referer
header. Likely this is to stop automated downloads, which kind of back-fires as ultimately you want to automate download and installation of things as much as possible.
Anyway: this is the [Archive.is] thread (which cannot be archived as Disqus hates archiving in the WayBack machine, and archive.is often fails with it too):

The recent update to 1.2300 fails for me with a file hash error. The install script has fe3d1135ae0e7b72394a6f3cc137282cb5e6382a55b5ceee72140d28f5ffe961
, but the installer as downloaded, and verified via a separate download and hash check has 5A42A24BED5A39ACA44443916E5B2C4C259CE8E843E90FD07F7AB3D26CB237C8
