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.

    I don’t think Steam lets you pick the location for Proton’s virtual environments which is where Steam installs non-Steam games. AFAIK they are always in the home directory and you can only pick a random location when it’s a portable game without setup.exe.

      I’m at work right now so i can’t take a pic, but I have an SD and an external drive for my steam deck. When I’m installing a repack through proton (or also a gog game through proton), it will let me pick my SD as the drive D and my ssd as drive E same way as if I were in windows. I can post a pic later today.
