I have to give credit to @maxim (https://gist.github.com/maxim/6e15aa45ba010ab030c4) and @bmils (https://github.community/t/how-to-download-latest-private-github-release-with-powershell-script/170605)
My script is basically just a mix of their scripts

@sonibla Thank you SO much for this script ! Have been looking for the last 3 hours, and couldn't find anything suitable ! But yours is simply a lifesaver ! Thanks again.
