On a Windows Operating System, the concept of applications running in the background is built in (in the form of a Windows Service). As such, there is no real requirement to add this as a command in Chocolatey since getting a list of the currently running Windows Services can be achieved using the Get-Service PowerShell cmdlet.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.management/get-service?view=powershell-6

For example, if you were interested only in the currently running Windows Services, you would use:

Get-Service | Where-Object Status -eq "Running"

I don't really see how Chocolatey, as a Windows Package Manager, could add any real value here.

I would be very interested in hearing what `Get-Service` does on a Mac. https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell – lit Oct 23 '18 at 13:54
I was actually interested in the same thing this morning, so I tested it, but isn't doesn't seem to be implemented on PowerShell Core running on my Mac. – Gary Ewan Park Oct 23 '18 at 14:21
