Overview
BitLord 2.4 is a software program developed by House of Life. The most common release is 2.4.3-305, with over 98% of all installations currently using this version.

A scheduled task is added to Windows Task Scheduler in order to launch the program at various scheduled times (the schedule varies depending on the version).

The setup package generally installs about 83 files and is usually about 132.01 MB (138,419,362 bytes). The software utilizes the Nokia Qt cross-platforms C++ framework. Relative to the overall usage of users who have this installed on their PCs, most are running Windows 10 and Windows 7 (SP1). While about 55% of users of BitLord come from the United States, it is also popular in United Kingdom and Canada.
