Hi All,
I am migrating All my windows games to Linux Mint 20 which means a fresh download of all games
Anyone who wishes Windows games would run on Linux, now its possible without paying for Crossover
Use Timneshift first to backup I picked All under "Users" for my backup.
Lutris has made moving to Linux very easy just follow the first page
Read everything top to bottom. it will walk you through the process
A Couple things tho,... Register an account on lutris(Dot)net this is where you will find Every Game they support,...add your games to your online library for easy install,...  it installs all your games using the Lutris app it applies all the dependencies
You will also need to use Lutris to launch most games I have found an exception " A Story About My Uncle " runs right from the desktop launcher.
I am starting fresh to try to get a fuller understanding of the steps, works perfectly with GOG and Origin, Steam still trying for some strange reason I have always had problems with Steam after windows 7support stopped I have not tried UPlay yet
Have Fun !
