What’s the best way to play pirated windows games on Linux?

Ever since I’ve migrated I stuck to emulation for game piracy cause it was pretty simple. Ive been trying to run some repacked games but I can’t get them to install properly.

I don’t see many people talk about this probably because most game pirates use windows if I had to guess.

    then chang the path of the exe and the working folder to those of the installed game

    I feel the need to underline this part because removing the setup.exe entry and the adding the installed exe doesn’t work. The entire virtual drive gets deleted when removing setup.exe. This makes the procedure a bit more complicated than it should be but it’s needed when it has to go through Steam because of Steam Deck Game Mode.
