Powershell equivalent of Linux wget
Hi
I am new to Powershell, more familiar with Linux (just!) but due to hardware restrictions having to do some fetching of remote documents using a Windows pc. I know the Linux command I need to use and have been trying to work out the Powershell equivalent, without much success, not surprising really!
My Linux command is
wget --user=$user --password=$password http://<webaddress>//<filename>
so I have a simple wget command and somewhere to put my login credentials. I have tried using wget for Windows but again due to restrictions I can't put it on my laptop. Can anyone help with something for Powershell which is straightforward? Thanks!
