Irfanview download URL is not working #37

Closed JonathanPitre closed 11 months ago

JonathanPitre commented 2 years ago

Irfanview download URL is not working, it downloads an incomplete file. The same issue occurs with the setup and plugin file.

https://www.fosshub.com/IrfanView.html?dwl=iview460_x64_setup.exe redirects to https://download.fosshub.com/Protected/expiretime=1648034402;badurl=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZm9zc2h1Yi5jb20vSXJmYW5WaWV3Lmh0bWw=/7939fbcbd770399eb8f3f3a68222a6deb6255eff5c6ef1435077df24aacc7d3c/5b8d1f5659eee027c3d7883a/623457812413750bd71fef36/iview460_x64_setup.exe for instance.

I tried the Resolve-Uri function and I still can't get it to work.

Maybe it would be easier to switch the source links to betanews.com, just like Eric did?

As commented in the PR - there was an IrfanView update today, but the alternative mirror BetaNews still has the previous version, so we can't grab the version from the main site but the download from there, as the versions will not match.

Will keep as-is until we can come up with a better solution! Does the app have an auto update check at all?

Resolved for the next release
