Getting wget for Windows

For most of the Unix-like work I do on Windows, the small set of utilities provided by Git for Windows suffice. But just yesterday I found myself needing wget to complete a small (Windows) shell script I wanted to write.

In my search for a solution I finally took a closer look at the Git for Windows SDK, and lo! found it includes a wget binary for Windows.

There are a few ways I could have gone with this. The "right" way would have been to replace my existing install with a recompiled Git for Windows. But I wasn't going to exert that kind of effort to get a single utility. What I did instead was install wget for the SDK and then copy it and its one dependency to where I had Git installed.

First install the SDK and open its shell (msys1_shell.cmd). Then install wget using pacman(pacman -Sy wget).

Next, open a Windows terminal as Admin and copy the wget executable and

Update 2025-07-16: Use either Revanced, NewPipe or Firefox with add-ons. Revanced is my personal pick, due to it being a mod of the official App like Vanced, but better (e.g. it has integration of Sponsor Block, Return YouTube Disklike and more).

I wouldn't recommend Kiwi Browser anymore as it has been discontinued. AFAIK it has been accuired by Microsoft and the extension support has been merged into Edge (Canary). But you'd have to use Edge. Yuck.
