script cannot go to the web without IE default parameters validated

[davidande]

seen a Strange bug on some servers. no way to download the extensions list. The problem was from Internet explorer that was never launch before. The first time You launch Internet explorer You are asked to choose the default parameters You want to use. The cmdlet Invoke-WebRequest seems to use Internet Explorer because after launching one time IE, the problem was solved. I did this on almost 3 different servers (2012R2 and 2016).

Not sure if it's clear :-)
