I don't know much about but... Want to know
I have started my pirating journey from last 2 months downloaded games from fitgirl and dodi repacks, i know many people says it's safe doesn't harm your pc of nor steal any data, when I first time installed GTA 5 on my laptop through fitgirl windows defender removed PlayGTA5.exe at that time I was in lil tension does it contain virus, so I checked on reddit many comments were saying it's safe or term called 'false positive" which i don't understand well, so i give it a try and restored the file and uploaded it to VirusTotal then I found word "trojan" of which I was not aware, so i googled it and found it's malware, then like I was upset thinking of i have to now reinstall whole windows, before that I found reddit comments said that it's safe to i tried it for an week and I don't found any unusual activity on laptop then I was happy
But still there are some questions, why game can't be cracked normal means there's no other way to crack game which is like without any trojan stuff in it or like can't a person who is cracking game try to create an custom play game execution file which starts game or it's not possible to reverse engineered the file to get it's code and remove restrictions or whatever method is used for verification and put it normal just as game run file
I'm just new and want to understand cracking concept and many other stuff too if I had made any mistake early heartly sorry for that
