Describe the Bug

In China, the speed of accessing GitHub by most ISPs is very slow and may facing blocking. The installation process can get stuck while downloading ViGEmBus. Most people use proxy to speed up their access to GitHub. If it is possible to download through the system proxy, it could significantly improve the installation experience for many Chinese users.
For my ISP, the speed of directly download from GitHub is about 20kb/s.😥

Expected Behavior

Use system proxy to download ViGEmBus.

We're just using standard curl in a bat file to download it. As far as I know it doesn't support using the system proxy. If you want support for that you'll need to talk to the people of curl.

Alternatively, just download and install it yourself.

I changed curl -s -L -o "%temp_dir%\vigembus.exe" %browser_download_url%
to powershell -Command "(New-Object Net.WebClient).DownloadFile('%browser_download_url%', '%temp_dir%\vigembus.exe')"
in /src_assets/windows/misc/vigembus/install-vigembus.bat,
and it's working for me.
Could you please modify this?🙏

You can submit a PR and we will review it.

Instead of using PowerShell, we should find a way to get the system proxy using batch scripting. Perhaps netsh winhttp show proxy?

Then set the appropriate proxy variables.

Or set the proxy in the _curlrc file. https://stackoverflow.com/a/35815181/11214013
