Checking for PSExec installation... -- PSExec not present; downloading it... Failed The script requires, but could not download, PSExec. Exiting: Please check your internet connection and retry.

Internet connection is fine (or I would not have been able to post this comment ;) )

Hi, here's what the script tries to download: https://download.sysinternals.com/files/PSTools.zip

Try downloading it now with your web browser. If I had to guess, your antivirus is probably intercepting it; PSExec can do a lot of damage in the wrong hands.
