Use wget -N to prevent duplicate downloads when the name, date,

That only works if I am downloading to the same location/name as the source is

Erik (and others),
don't worry about Setup version, please.
Use this script:
https://gist.github.com/Vlado-99/1d59bf05b70481377ff90bb53e13bb2d
it makes things much easier:
- Setup is downloaded only if gpg signature changes (only very small
.sig file is re-downloaded every time)
- gpg signature of Setup is validated (no need to do it manually)
- services I use, are stopped and restarted automatically (no need to
restart Windows after update; add Yours services to script if needed)
