How Do I Use Invoke-WebRequest to Download Files in PowerShell? or Why Is My Invoke-WebRequest Comman

Dude, same issue here! Found out invoke webrequest doesn’t follow redirects by default if the site throws a 301/302. Add `-MaximumRedirection 5` to handle that.

Also, timeout errors? Try tweaking `-TimeoutSec`. Some APIs are slow af.

Postman works because it auto-adds headers. You gotta mimic that in PowerShell. Fiddler or Wireshark can help sniff what Postman’s sending.
