I have decided to switch to Linux Mint from windows. I don't use computer for work that much. And for my personal use I'm switching to Linux Mint. I have heard a lot about it. So giving it a try. I know about emulating windows in linux to play window games. But how do you use cracks and stuff?? Does emulating also access my 100% graphics card or less? I want to know about all these. Please people in my condition help. Thanks in advance :)

Use "wine-ge" not "proton-ge" in this case. Anything with "proton" in its name is specifically made to work best with games on Steam. "Wine-ge" has all the patches from "proton-ge" so you're not missing out on anything, but it can work better with non Steam games.
