Research direction
Locate the documentation statement that says wget is required only on macOS and Linux. Update it to cover Windows and include the shown winget installation command, while preserving the note about PowerShell if appropriate. Done means the documentation clearly explains how Windows users can resolve the “wget not found” error.

Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The documentation states that wget is only required for Mac OS and Linux, but in reality, the "wget not found" error can also occur on Windows.
Describe the solution you'd like
This can be resolved by installing wget with the following command. Please clearly state this in the documentation.
``
winget install -e --id JernejSimoncic.Wget
**Describe alternatives you've considered**
On PowerShell, wget could be executed without running the above installation command. This remains a mystery; it's probably related to the PATH setting, but it might not be properly referencing the original wget.
