Dude, wget on Windows is a pain if you’re not used to CLI. Here’s the dumbed-down version:

1. Put wget.exe in a folder (anywhere, but `C:\wget` is neat).
2. Open CMD in that folder (Shift+Right Click > "Open PowerShell here").
3. Run: `wget -r -l 1 -p -k https://yourwebsite.com`

`-r` = recursive, `-l 1` = only 1 level deep, `-k` fixes links.

Pro tip: Add the folder to PATH if you’re gonna use wget a lot. Google "add folder to PATH Windows" if stuck.
