Download Size of Blue Iris v5, Full Version

Hi,

Can someone tell me the download file size of BI5, full version? In other words, how much data will it take for me to download the full version?

Reason: at the moment, I'm on a limited data plan (yes, it's weak) with a Verizon mobile-hotspot device, and I'd like to download BI on THIS month's allotment of data before it resets on the 26th (no rollover).

For what it's worth, I tried searching numerous terms, but no matter what I try I continue to get this:
“The following words in your search query were ignored because they are too common words: download size.
You must specify at least one word to search for. Each word must consist of at least 2 characters and must not contain more than 14 characters excluding wildcards.”


Thanks!

Thank you, sir. You know, it's funny, my girlfriend's WiFi only gets 6 gigs a month, and I couldn't figure out for the life of me where all our data was going every month - I would surf a few forums and watch a couple short vids, and BAMM! 4 gigs gone!

I thought we were being hacked by a neighbor or something. Then I realized that I could check the usage on my laptop, and it turns out it's the seemingly-constant Win10 updates to my XPS 13. What's more concerning, I am pretty sure I changed all the settings to prevent automatic updates until I decide when I want to download them. But alas, it's been running updates in the background. I should've been tipped off when the dialog box kept saying "installing updates" and so on and on. This is what happens when you're not the most computer literate :P

Anyhow, I've advanced my PC literacy tenfold in the last couple months, and I have a new, dedicated machine to load BI on (and a half dozen Dahua cams to hook up).

Thanks again!
