Running cURL on 64 bit Windows

by

Your problem is that your are not using the Curl you installed but a CmdLet called Invoke-WebRequest.

Just execute :

Remove-item alias:curl

And test your curl again, then store it in your profile.

The explanation is that it exists a native alias to the Invoke-WebRequest which is a CmdLet that is supposed to deliver a kind of curl service.

From Windows 10 build 17063 and later (April 2018), Curl is included into Windows, so that you can execute it directly from Cmd.exe or PowerShell.exe. To use it in PowerShell be careful to unalias this CmdLet or explicitly call curl.exe.

Built with Schannel (Microsoft’s native TLS engine), libcurl still perform peer certificate verification, but instead of using a CA cert bundle, it uses the certificates that are built into the OS.
