[Bug]: The Download size for 7zip is incorrect

[j81blog]

What happened?

Get-EvergreenApp -Name 7zip | Where-Object{$_.Architecture -eq 'x64' -and $_.Type -like 'msi' } | Save- EvergreenApp -CustomPath C:\temp

If I use the same URI to dowmload the file I get the sourcefourge "info" page with a counter. Then I'm being presented with the download and get the right file with right size. Lookls like downloadg via PowerShell doesn't work anymore.

Version

2405.1076

Had the same issue, I had to edit the download uri slightly to Invoke-WebRequest -Uri $($DownloadURI + "?viasf=1") I had to add an if statement. If $DownloadURI -like "sourceforge.net do the above url edit.

Having visited the sourceforge.net using the new uri https://deac-riga.dl.sourceforge.net/project/sevenzip/7-Zip/24.06/7z2406-x64.msi it does a redirect to https://deac-riga.dl.sourceforge.net/project/sevenzip/7-Zip/24.06/7z2406-x64.msi?viasf=1 which then downloads the full file as normal.

This overall issue will affect all applications sourced from sourceforge.net as I had the same issue with WINSCP

Has anyone found a better a solution, if so please let me know
