Prerequisites

[X] I have written a descriptive issue title.
[X] I have searched all issues/PRs to ensure it has not already been reported or fixed.
[X] I have verified that I am using the latest version of Scoop and corresponding bucket.

Package Name

nvcleanstall

Expected/Current Behaviour

As mentioned in https://github.com/ScoopInstaller/Extras/issues/12517#issuecomment-1867716510, the URL hardcoded in the package is no longer available, so the installation fails when trying to access. Doing from the browser you can see the following:

With an invalid certificate from the server. The software can be installed from multiple servers, not just one unique URL:

But the problem is that the available servers list is not always the same, it keeps changing frequently.

Steps to Reproduce

PS> scoop install extras/nvcleanstall
Installing 'nvcleanstall' (1.16.0) [64bit] from extras bucket
The remote certificate is invalid according to the validation procedure.
URL https://nl2-dl.techpowerup.com/files/NVCleanstall_1.16.0.exe#/NVCleanstall.exe is not valid

Possible Solution

Change the download URL to another one which is permanent or check multiple URLs (as the installer is available through multiple servers) during the installation. I don't know exactly how hard can it be to find a permanent link or to perform a discovery of the available URLs during the installation, but it seems to be the only feasible solution.

The specified manifest [Bug]: nvcleanstall does not exist in this bucket. Make sure you opened the issue in the correct bucket.

Can this have some attention? I don't know why this is closed automatically saying that the Nvcleanstall package is not found...
