each extracted file is the same between versions.

comparing resources folders

There is difference in resources folder

$ du -sh 3.1.3/Cypress/resources
606M	3.1.3/Cypress/resources
$ du -sh 3.1.4/Cypress/resources
639M	3.1.4/Cypress/resources

Drilling down, seems the difference is due to packages/server 525M -> 560M

$ du -sh 3.1.3/Cypress/resources/app/packages/*
456K	3.1.3/Cypress/resources/app/packages/coffee
5.8M	3.1.3/Cypress/resources/app/packages/desktop-gui

136K	3.1.4/Cypress/resources/app/packages/ts

Driving into server/node_modules, seems the difference is due to @ffmpeg-installer

$ du -sh 3.1.3/Cypress/resources/app/packages/server/node_modules/\@ffmpeg-installer
234M	3.1.3/Cypress/resources/app/packages/server/node_modules/@ffmpeg-installer

$ du -sh 3.1.4/Cypress/resources/app/packages/server/node_modules/\@ffmpeg-installer
342M	3.1.4/Cypress/resources/app/packages/server/node_modules/@ffmpeg-installer

which due to hat range and version upgrade might be different

3.1.3

"@ffmpeg-installer/win32-ia32": "^4.0.4",
"@ffmpeg-installer/win32-x64": "^4.0.3",
