My Suggestion

I would install choco using:

Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force; [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol -bor 3072; iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://community.chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))

then using choco i would do a choco install winget, after successfull installation I would uninstall choco and cleanup the stuff it left behind

The chocolatey method is already included in install-winutilchoco.ps1 and should run automatically of the direct approach fails. The chocolatey way in the past also produced some errors for me.
