3. How to Update Games?

To update a game:

  • Download the updated version.
  • Backup your save and config files from the old version.

5. What is Exclusion? How to Set It Up?

Exclusion is a Windows Defender feature to bypass specific files or folders from scanning. Sometimes antivirus software flags safe crack files as threats. To avoid this:

  • Open Windows Security.
  • Go to “Virus & Threat Protection” > “Manage Settings” > “Exclusions.”
  • Add the game folder to exclusions.

6. How to Fix DLL Errors?

Common DLL issues and solutions:

  • Missing crack files: Recover or re-extract the game in an exclusion folder.
  • DirectX errors (e.g., XINPUT1_3.dll): Install DirectX.
  • Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable errors (e.g., MSVCR120.dll): Install the AIO file in the game’s _Redist folder.

7. What If a Link Shows ‘File Does Not Exist’ or ‘404’?

File sharing sites may remove inactive files, causing broken links. GamesLink offers multiple links per game to minimize disruptions. If all links are broken, report the issue via comments or contact us, and we’ll re-upload promptly.

8. What Are the System Requirements for Games?

Each game post includes its system requirements in detail. Check the “Minimum” and “Recommended” requirements before downloading to ensure your device can run the game smoothly.

9. Do I Need Special Software to Install Games?

Yes, most games are compressed in archive formats (e.g., RAR or ZIP). You’ll need software like WinRAR or 7-Zip to extract files. For installation, follow the Read Me file instructions provided with each game.

10. Can I Play Multiplayer or Online Modes?

Multiplayer and online modes may not work with cracked or preinstalled games. Some games include fixes or workarounds, but most online features require a legitimate copy.

11. Why Does My Antivirus Flag Game Files?

Antivirus software often flags crack files as threats, even if they’re safe. This is called a “false positive.” To avoid issues, add the game folder to your antivirus or Windows Defender exclusion list.

12. How Can I Back Up My Save Files?

Save files are usually stored in the “Documents” folder or the game installation directory. Before updating or reinstalling, back up these files by copying them to another location.
