First make sure that nobody tries to scam you and that you are on a safe computer/environment.
You could could use Bitcoin Core, but do you really want to wait for +100 GB to download? This will take hours.
There are wallets where you can import your wallet.dat and see if/how much is in it. You will also be able to use it then. I would recommend to make a copy first, before you play around with it.
