curl

In PowerShell, this command may be an alias of Invoke-WebRequest when the original curl program (https://curl.se) is not properly installed. More information: https://learn.microsoft.com/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.utility/invoke-webrequest.

• Check whether curl is properly installed by printing its version number. If this command evaluates into an error, PowerShell may have substituted this command with Invoke-WebRequest:

curl --version
