Choco suddenly stopped working: Error: 'The file is not a valid nupkg'

Technical Issue

As of today choco completely refuses to do anything:

PS C:\ProgramData\Chocolatey\bin> choco upgrade all
Chocolatey v2.1.0
Upgrading the following packages:
all
By upgrading, you accept licenses for the packages.

Chocolatey upgraded 0/0 packages.
 See the log for details (C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\logs\chocolatey.log).
'C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\lib\virtualbox-guest-additions-guest.install\virtualbox-guest-additions-guest.install.nupkg' is not a valid nupkg file. Error: 'The file is not a valid nupkg. File path: C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\lib\virtualbox-guest-additions-guest.install\virtualbox-guest-additions-guest.install.nupkg'.
PS C:\ProgramData\Chocolatey\bin> choco export
Chocolatey v2.1.0
'C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\lib\virtualbox-guest-additions-guest.install\virtualbox-guest-additions-guest.install.nupkg' is not a valid nupkg file. Error: 'The file is not a valid nupkg. File path: C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\lib\virtualbox-guest-additions-guest.install\virtualbox-guest-additions-guest.install.nupkg'.
PS C:\ProgramData\Chocolatey\bin>

Deleting package manually doesn't help, next one pops up with the same message.
