我从网站下载txt文件时遇到问题。下面的脚本下载http代码，而不是实际的txt文件及其内容。
$WebClient = New-Object System.Net.WebClient
$WebClient.DownloadFile("https://thegivebackproject.org/CheckStatus.txt","D:\CheckStatus.txt")
PowerShell从WebSite下载Txt文件

jjyinhua 回答：PowerShell从WebSite下载Txt文件
您可以使用简单的Invoke-WebRequest：
Invoke-WebRequest -URI https://thegivebackproject.org/CheckStatus.txt -OutFile D:\CheckStatus.txt
简短回答
服务器正在执行浏览器嗅探，以根据请求中的User-Agent标头发送不同的响应。您可以通过发送罐头用户代理字符串来获取所需的响应：
$useragent = "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML,like Gecko) Chrome/78.0.3904.97 Safari/537.36"
Invoke-WebRequest -URI https://thegivebackproject.org/CheckStatus.txt -OutFile c:\temp\CheckStatus.txt -UserAgent $useragent

响应您所访问的url的服务器正在进行浏览器嗅探，以确定要返回的内容。如果您给它提供一个User-Agent标头，它可以识别出它将返回您期望的响应（即，文字文本“ Azeemkhan-WaseemRaza”）。
如果您不包含User-Agent标头（而$WebClient.DownloadFile 不包含标头），则服务器将以HTML页面作为响应。
如果您安装了Fiddler之类的HTTP跟踪工具，则可以自己看到此行为。在浏览器中点击页面时，您会看到以下HTTP请求和响应对：

解决方法是在请求中包含一个公认的User-Agent标头，如果您像@BiNZGi建议的那样使用Invoke-WebRequest而不是WebClient类，则更容易实现-请参阅“简短答案”上面的代码。
此外，请注意，User-Agent的这种嗅探行为特定于“ thegivebackproject.org”网站，对于其他网站并不一定适用-您不必总是凭经验包括User-Agent标头。
