FAQs

Open the game page, read the details table and the system requirements first, then press the download button under the table. The button takes you to the file host. Follow the steps shown there and save the file to a folder you can find easily.

Speed depends mostly on the file host and on your own connection. These steps fix most cases:

• Try again at a different time of day, because hosts are slower when many people use them.
• Make sure you have enough free space on the drive you are saving to.
• Pause other downloads, streaming and updates while the file is downloading.
• Use a download manager if your browser keeps dropping the connection.

Links can expire or be removed by the host. Leave a comment under the post, or send us the post link from the Contact page, and we will check it. Please try the link once more after a few hours before reporting, as many errors are temporary.

You can browse every page on this site without an account. Some file hosts may ask you to complete extra steps on their own page, and those steps are controlled by the host, not by us.

Install a free archive tool such as 7-Zip. Right-click the downloaded file, choose the 7-Zip menu and pick “Extract to folder”. If the game comes in several parts, keep every part in the same folder and extract the first one.

This almost always means the download is incomplete or one part is missing. Download the file again, check that every part is in the same folder, and make sure the drive has enough free space. Extracting into a short folder path such as D:\Games also avoids many errors.

Files here are packed into compressed archives, so the download is smaller than the installed game. After extraction and installation the game needs more space. Check the storage line in the System Requirements block of the post before you start, and keep some extra free space.

An SSD gives the shortest loading times. Choose a folder with a short name that uses only English letters and numbers, and avoid placing the game inside the Downloads folder or on the desktop. Folders with special characters or very long paths can stop a game from launching.

These files belong to the Microsoft Visual C++ runtime. Download the latest version from Microsoft’s official page, install both the x64 and x86 versions, restart the PC and start the game again.

Install the DirectX End-User Runtime from Microsoft’s official download page. Never download single DLL files from random websites, because they can be unsafe and often do not fix the problem.

1. Compare your PC with the minimum requirements on the game’s page.
2. Update your graphics driver from the official NVIDIA, AMD or Intel website.
3. Install pending Windows updates and restart the PC.
4. Right-click the game’s shortcut and choose “Run as administrator”.
5. Close overlays and background apps such as screen recorders, then try again.

Lower the graphics settings, starting with shadows, anti-aliasing and resolution scale. Set the Windows power plan to High performance, close browsers and other heavy apps, and keep the graphics driver updated. If the game offers a borderless windowed mode, try it as well.

Every post has a System Requirements block with minimum specs. To see your own, press Win + R, type dxdiag and press Enter. The window shows your processor, memory and graphics card. Your PC should meet at least the minimum values, and the recommended values give a smoother experience.

We cannot guarantee that any file from a third-party host is free of problems. Always scan downloaded files with an up-to-date antivirus before you open them, use only the download button on our pages, and never run files that come from unknown sources. If your security software flags something, do not ignore the warning. Tell us through the Contact page so we can check the post.
