Why does the web site not offer portable 64-bit version?

Postby ant » 12 Oct 2023 20:28

Does anyone know why http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-windows.html doesn't offer portable 64-bit version files? I see them in https://mirrors.ocf.berkeley.edu/videol ... .19/win64/.

Yes, the ZIP and 7zip packages are only offered as the 32-bit version while the 64-bit version is available.

Thanks. Wow since 2019. So, why doesn't the official web site provide links to them?
