Important

The provided URL IS NOT the installer file URL. It will redirect to a download page.

In the last visit, my installer file URL contains an r=fhpZxqwS parameter. fhpZxqwS here might be an encrypted, dynamically generated "token". Then it redirects to the actual file URL, with a /download-fhpZxqwS/ path in the URL.

winget.exe does NOT support this kind of packages.

Note

Inspecting the URL you provided via Komac, following error pops up:

VideoHelp is not the official site of DaVinci. This site is.

Unfortunately the official site also has dynamic token parameters in the URL.
