https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/8.0

all you need is the .NET Runtime 8.0.11
scroll down,its the last one on the right.

"The .NET Runtime contains just the components needed to run a console app."
webgrab is a console app.

u can try this from powershell or command prompt.
reading the docs it looks to be the easiest way.

winget install Microsoft.DotNet.Runtime.8

it could be a dns issue.
for example my isp dns doesnt work for tvpassport.com
some reason they dont have it(or refuse to add it)

i set everything i use to use google dns(even my vpn)
8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

i honestly dont think its a dns issue.
webgrab should return no index page recieved if it was.
update user-agent in ur wg config,common reason also for 403 forbidden.
what i use..
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/129.0.0.0 Safari/537.36 Edg/129.0.0.0
