    I had a script on PS4 that runs wget -i .\ Urls.txt  but on PS5 it tells me this error:

    cmdlet Invoke-WebRequest at command pipeline position 1
    Supply values for the following parameters:
    Uri:

    wget : Invalid URI: The hostname could not be parsed.
    At line:1 char:1
    + wget -i .\ Urls.txt
    + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        + CategoryInfo          : NotSpecified: (:) [Invoke-WebRequest], UriFormatException
        + FullyQualifiedErrorId : System.UriFormatException,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.InvokeWebRequestCommand

    

    Any solutions?

    Thanks

    That is correct.  You cannot use it and must use full path to WGET utility.

    Sorry but we don't have that script.  Perhaps you can contact the author of your script for help.

    The error message and the script don't match.  The code doesn't make any sense.  "wget" is not a PowerShell CmdLet it is an alias.

    Using localhost may fail.  Use the host name and test with a browser or as a command.

    Invoke-WebRequest 'http://localhost/manager?cmd=reset&from=list1'

    you were using the wget utility.  You need to use the full path to the utility or remove the alias.
