Notes

  • Distributed as below variants:
    • Setup - Installs BCU as a normal application. If your system is missing the required .NET runtime, it is automatically installed as well.
    • Portable - Self-contained version that does not require the .NET runtime to run. It includes a runtime which is why the file size is so large.
    • net - Stand-alone portable version that requires the .NET runtime to be installed. Much smaller file size than the full Portable version.
  • Older systems that cannot meet the current version’s Windows 10/.NET 8 requirement should use the last 5.x release for Windows 7 SP1+, or the last 4.x release for Windows XP/Vista. Source [1] [2].
