How would I get this script to install the stable version instead of the beta? It seems to always install the beta version over the stable. Also looks like the beta is a couple versions behind the stable. Thanks for the script though!

@abarber229
install-rclone -beta $false
installs the latest stable version.
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> install-rclone -beta $false
rclone v1.49.3

  • os/arch: windows/amd64
  • go version: go1.12.3

I do see that the latest beta is not being grabbed. My script grabs it from the location
http://beta.rclone.org/rclone-beta-latest-windows-amd64.zip which the contents are not correct even though the modified date is being updated.
So we will need to have the rclone team clean that up.

EDIT
did they change how the betas work?

EDIT2
made a post over on the git
rclone/rclone#3570

Is it possible to change the links to https?
The HTTP links redirect to HTTPS and powershell don't support redirects HTTP to HTTPS: PowerShell/PowerShell#2896

I added the 's' on the end of the http for the links. did one quick test and it worked but it wasn't thorough. Thanks for pointing this out.
