Downloads
Windows:
Both packages are built using Visual Studio and require Administrator rights for installation, because they install vcredist packages (Visual Studio C++ redistributable package, containing libraries needed when running software compiled in Visual Studio).
These packages are created using Qt5, previous build was done using Qt6 but clearly had some issues, so we decided not to take the risks this time.

- 64 bit: Built using VS 2019 / Qt 5.15.2
Linux:
