I can't help wondering if the positioning of the double quotes on that
part of the command is working the way you want.

I might be inclined to write to the file normally, then if curl's rc was ok
follow that with something like

echo Data from %url% > "yourfile:ntfs_stream_text"

based on the fact that a commandline command like the following
works ok for updating an ADS (in fact to 'unblock' a just-downloaded
file)

echo.> "C:\Users\me\Downloads\xyz.jpg:Zone.Identifier:$DATA"
