What about a torrent? You'll have to encrypt with 7zip or something to keep it secure, but that and qbitorrent will do the trick.
through the public BitTorrent tracker, I'll try it too, thanks

It’s too big for email, and likely too big for Dropbox or Gdrive unless you have a paid account with them.
That means you’re going to have to get slightly technical. Find a freeware SFTP program that can spawn a server on the host, and connect to it from the client to download the file.
Good luck!

Syncthing? Never used it on Windows but they do have a client so it should work. That's the simplest I can think of.

Thanks, I corrected it
To peer, or not to peer. That is the question.
