Use wget Command To Download Files From HTTPS Domains

The wget command can be used to download files from HTTPS domains. By default, wget will automatically verify the SSL certificate of the HTTPS site you’re downloading from, and will only download files if the certificate is valid.

To download a file from an HTTPS site, simply specify the URL of the file you want to download after the wget command. For example:

wget https://www.example.com/file.zip

This will download the file file.zip from the domain www.example.com using HTTPS. The downloaded file will be saved in the current directory.

You can also specify a different directory to save the file to using the -P or --directory-prefix option. For example:

wget -P ~/Downloads https://www.example.com/file.zip

This will download the file file.zip from https://www.example.com and save it in the ~/Downloads directory.
