What "main file" are you talking about?

I downloaded the package, and extracted it to a folder. Right-click the
folder and hit properties, here it shows you the size. If your folder is
not ~63.3 MB, let us know. Your operating system might be hiding files from
you, or you may be expecting a different "main file"?
