Release file differences on the homepage and the github page

[GearMetal11]

Hello!

You can download the emulator release either from the homepage downloads section, or from the github releases assets. But these downloaded files are not the same. For example checking the 1.20.3 windows portable release, inside the zip the 'PPSSPPWindows64.exe' file has a different filesize and hash depending whether you downloaded it from the home page or the github. The github package is also missing the 'PPSSPPWindows.exe' file, but not sure if that matters.

Why are the .exe files having different sizes and should the files be identical?

Thanks for the emulator!

They're built two different ways. The github assets are built with github CI (which I think uses the latest compilers, or whatever compilers are on there) while the official releases are built using MSVC build tools 2022, so that we can still function on Windows 7.
