curl download file problems? Here’s the nuclear option:

```
curl -v -LO -H "User-Agent: Wget" https://example.com/file.zip
```

Verbose mode (`-v`) spills all the tea, `-L` follows redirects, and the fake user agent sometimes tricks servers.

If all else fails, Postman can download files too—GUI ftw.
