Get latest winrar installer with cURL

Super User Asked by klaatu_nikto on January 31, 2021

I’m tryng to always download the latest version of WinRAR in my language from the official site with cURL but can’t figure out how the redirect link works.

The site https://www.win-rar.com/postdownload.html?&L=6&Version=32bit read the user agent to download the corresponding language version.

I try the following code whitout success:

curl -L --output winrar.exe -A "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:84.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/84.0" "https://www.win-rar.com/postdownload.html?&L=6&Version=32bit"

curl --output winrar.exe -A "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:84.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/84.0" "https://www.win-rar.com/postdownload.html?&L=6&Version=32bit"

curl --output winrar.exe -H "Host: www.win-rar.com" -H "Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,image/webp,*/*;q=0.8" -H "User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:84.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/84.0" -H "HTTPS: 1" -H "DNT: 1" -H "Referer: https://www.win-rar.com/postdownload.html?&L=6&Version=32bit" -H "Accept-Language: es-AR,es;q=0.8,en-US;q=0.5,en;q=0.3" -H "Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate, br" -H "DNT: 1" -H "Connection: keep-alive" -H "Cookie: fe_typo_user=8820621858ced675661c51c70cf0015f; cookieDisclaimer=0" -H "Upgrade-Insecure-Requests: 1" -H "Sec-GPC: 1" -H "TE: Trailers" https://www.win-rar.com/postdownload.html?&L=6&Version=32bit

Can somebody help me?

you may check the real world at "rarlab.com" NOT "win rar". same content/manufacturer. there you get a full url that works using 'wget' or 'curl' otherwise you get a download depending of your running OS/Browser/client
