Choco Install fails if IE has never been launched

This is the console output

Apparently, the command Invoke-WebRequest https://api.github.com/repos/MathewSachin/Captura/releases/latest fails if IE has never run.
Either the parameter "-UseBasicParsing" should added, or user should be prompted to run IE.
Updating captura also fails under the conditions above.

Thank you for reporting the error 👍

It is strange that Powershell depends on IE.
I will check -UseBasicParsing and other possible options.

Seems to be fixed in v5.0.1.
