An unexpected error occurred while executing the command:
Download request status is not success.

Downloading manifest files and changing Installer URL to https://download.kde.org/stable/release-service/23.08.1/windows/kdeconnect-kde-23.08.1-1463-windows-cl-msvc2019-x86_64.exe and updating the InstallerSha256 results in a successful install. Recommending to change the URL and update the checksum and use the download.kde.org URL going forward for new releases.
