This website helps me check and manage my internet subscription expiration easily. I typically visit 'https://client.algerietelecom.dz/en/login' and log in before navigating to 'https://client.algerietelecom.dz/en/accueil' to find the expiration date. However, this process involves a lot of clicking, so I've created a batch file with the help of ChatGPT and the 'CurlWget' extension (available at "https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/curlwget/dgcfkhmmpcmkikfmonjcalnjcmjcjjdn"). Now, with just one click on the batch file, I can instantly view the expiration date.
The problem I face is that I need to update the cookie every few hours, obtained from the 'CurlWget' extension, or else the wget command fails. I'm seeking a more efficient method to obtain the date where I can simply click the batch file and wait without the need for frequent updates. :)
