Looks like they changed how the data is downloaded. Now you need to use a software package that requires NET6. That is a no-go for me. So seems a Microsoft system is needed: https://github.com/HaveIBeenPwned/PwnedPasswordsDownloader https://github.com/HaveIBeenPwned/PwnedPasswordsDownloader Does anyone have a link or knows of a non-NET tool to download this new data ?

While I share your annoyance at needing dotnet on my system, since I don't use it, dotnet has been cross platform for quite some time. You don't need a Windows box to run this code.

  I am on a system that does not support NET at all, so right now I am SOL :)

      Even BSD has a Linux compat layer right?

        Yes.

        Hah, I see. Yeah, that would do it.

  Actually, you probably do since it has imports from Microsoft.Win32

    Only for SafeFileHandle, which is actually portable and usable for random-access IO since .NET 6. The namespace is historical.

Just fire up a VM if you need Windows.

  On what, I do not have a copy of any version of Windows. I think I can find Windows 3.1 diskettes somewhere in the cellar. :) I have this download which I grabbed a while ago before the move to NET: pwned-passwords-sha1-ordered-by-hash-v8.txt.gz All I really want is a the list from Genesis.

That is irritating. I’m not even sure which is worse; having to install an enormous and bloated runtime in order to download a group of files over HTTP, or forcing me to make 64 thousand HTTP requests in order to download a single dataset.

It just makes a bunch of requests in the form https://api.pwnedpasswords.com/range/FFFFF https://api.pwnedpasswords.com/range/FFFFF and stores the replies in a file.

Well I ended up finding a Linux system with net6 on it. Was not that bad and the download was a rather interesting tool. I had a net issue and it seemed to know where to pick up (as long as you do not cancel the run). So I have a the list :) Now sending it over to BSD.
