Explanation of the last panel?
I wish every game was like that AND the game saves were always in the directory.
I want to download, play, backup after I’m done without needing to manage all the save locations.
That can easily accomplished by running each game in its own WINEPREFIX.
Wait. This is genious! Why haven’t I thought of it?
Lol, where is “download from steam, hit play”?
it would have a few step more: go to work, work for 5 h, get your minimum wage 60$, enter you credit card info, pay steam
lol, ’cause ð last 2 r installŋ malware on ur device.

Communication is a two way street
Technically, when installing a fitgirl rip, it is doing an extraction only, just with some extra UI elements and other features like installing dependencies.
why does it require admin rights to run, then? right at startup, and if you try to run it with a tool that fakes admin rights, it will crash (unlike other installers it can successfully make run)
They need admin privileges to write to directories such as
C:/Program Files, if I had to guess - I didn’t need privileges when installing Halo: Combatevolved Butworse on Linuxbut I always installed them on my other drive where it did not need such privileges. it works on linux because here everything runs as admin (in the wine world, it’s not admin in the linux world)
It’s not that Wine runs things as an administrator, Wine emulates the Windows virtual filesystem by creating and using a directory in your home (by default), which means you own the entire thing;
with Windows, if you have a separate drive and *you* create a folder in it, even if you call it “Program Files”, it’s going to let you access it freely because it’s yours.
However, the existingProgram Filesfolder in your OS drive (C:by default, idk if you can change its volume letter) is owned by… I have no idea, actually, but it’s a system account, not yours.The last paragraph may be inaccurate, I was much less tech literate when I was still daily-driving Windows.
With the added complexity that it can fail for reasons I don’t comprehed. If it was just extracting that wouldn’t fail under any circumstances.
It’s your RAM bro

The lovecraftian installer
The only times it has failed on me was because either the storage device or RAM were faulty. It’s definitely worth it to check both for errors every once in a while, as financially devastating as it is to replace either.
