Download a file with command prompt

download

Download.exe is a valuable command utility that you can use to download any file or number of files by having the download location. This is really handy if you'd like to setup a script that will download all the files from an ftp server straight to a desired location via a quick batch operation. It's certainly useful to have in your toolbox just in case you need it. I imagine a good use for this would be for synchronizing environments, media, or perhaps creating a download script that puts all your useful utilities in to the windows path of a new machine ready for use.
