Quoting the output of wpkg.js /help ,

"/forceinstall[:<true>|<false>]
         Force installation over existing packages."

i.e. you should specify /forceinstall:true to set the parameter to true. 
In general, most (all?) boolean parameters to wpkg.js need to be of the 
form /arg:true or /arg:false , so your /force and /nonotify may well not 
be working as you intend, either.
