Issue installing on windows

[cameronbracken]

I'm running into an issue the installer not finding wget. I don't have wget installed, but the thing is, I've installed tinytex successfully before on this same machine without wget. I suspect that something else is going wrong.

The TeX Live installer has been broken for a few days (#45). I feel very frustrated by how they tried to fix the problems: https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/432649/9128 Anyway, perhaps all problems will be gone tomorrow (who knows). Fingers crossed...

Glad I’m not going crazy, I’ll check back soon. Thanks.

He forgot to commit the fix to the SVN repo, so you still have to wait... https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/432617/texlive-2018-installation-error-missing-lz4/432649?noredirect=1#comment1086010_432649
