Will anyone show me a decent web archival program? [M$10,000 bounty]

I want something like Pappet: very simple, doesn't waste my time reading documentation and debugging, just lets me save a website. Pappet does not work for me because it cannot handle websites that are behind a login page, and any links in the .mhtlm files it creates point to the live site rather than other archived files. I also haven't tested its robustness, I imagine it might miss things like if a website uses "links" that aren't <a> elements, or other atypical choices.

If it matters the particular website I want to archive is https://bugs-legacy.mojang.com/.

Will give you 10k mana if you point me to a suitable tool.

I think I gave this one too little time before close, so here's a new market with a higher bounty that's open for a week:

@FecalAbhuman If you're not going to read the market description please stop posting spam

@b8kd6y This appears to only capture pages I visited in a browser?

@IsaacKing How else do you plan on accessing the website, then?

@b8kd6y I don't want to access the website. I want a program to archive the website for me. Read the description.

Control + P, then set to save as PDF rather than print

@typeofemale Can you give me instructions I can follow in <1 minute to begin downloading a website?

@IsaacKing i think it is invite only, although you can prolly ping the people behind it and ask them to demo etc.

@typeofemale This does not seem sufficiently convenient for my purposes. Thank you though!
