The Invoke-WebRequest cmdlet is a powerful tool for downloading files from the internet. It allows you to specify a URL, credentials, and other options for downloading files.

$webClient = New-Object System.Net.WebClient $webClient.DownloadFile($url, $outputPath)

Alternatively, you can use the WebClient class to download files. This class provides a simpler way to download files, but it doesn't offer as many options as Invoke-WebRequest .

$url = "http://example.com/file.txt" $outputPath = "C:\Downloads\file.txt"

Invoke-WebRequest -Uri $url -OutFile $outputPath In this example, we're downloading a file from http://example.com/file.txt and saving it to C:\Downloads\file.txt .
