"$files_downloaded Files Downloaded, Time taken: $((Get-Date).Subtract($start_time).Seconds) second(s)" >> $download_folder\download_history.log

is there a way to check integrity of downloaded files by file size and also log errors in log file?

i want to re-download corrupted files.

i want to re-download corrupted files.

If I remember correctly I didn't bother to check because the antivirus software would reject the file if it was corrupted upon uploading the new definitions. Also if I missed it today it would just download the next one in a few days anyways and upload. If you really wnated to you'd probably have to scrape the md5 hash and compare.

Shouldn't the logic to check whether the download folder exists come after the alert that downloads are starting. It will throw an error if the download directory doesn't exist yet.
