I feel your pain man.

All the tutorials I have read and watched say to "just" do x, y and then z and it will all work fine! It never does. I have spent multiple hours trying to get a few different repacks to work in a few different ways and it never just works as it supposedly should.

I got one game to run once after 4 hours and thought j had it figured out then the next day it didn't work again xD

I now have two machines, one running Linux and one running windows for my DJ software and repacks, that doesn't help you but that is the best solution I found xD
