64bit wget

[winterz]

The wget package provides a 32bit version of the executable thereby limiting the maximum download size to 2GB.
There is a 64-bit version at https://eternallybored.org/misc/wget/
can we use that instead?

What version of the wget package are you running?

Because the latest version of the package (1.21.3) does include both the 32 and 64 bit archives from the eternallybored site:
https://community.chocolatey.org/packages/wget/1.21.3#files

Show the VERIFICATION.txt for details for the original download links for the included archives.

And I just reinstalled the package, and can confirm it does extract the 64 bit archive for me:

Wget v1.21.3 (forced)
wget package files install completed. Performing other installation steps.
Getting x64 bit zip
Extracting wget-1.21.3-win64_x64.zip to C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\lib\Wget\tools...
