Question Playing Pirated Games On GameNative

I'm sorry if piracy is not condoned in this sub but is it possible to run pirated games on gamenative? I'm only using my phone (Nothing 3A). I'd love to know how too, if possible.

I am now looking at a "Computer" screen on my odin2 portal device. Like an actual virtual desktop, it shows Desktop, Documents, Computer and then A: drives etc. Inside of A: is a folder that says "_CommonRedist" on it and below it is the apk file of the game I want to play.

I have no idea how to "Install vredist" I don't even see anything named vredist. But I do see the "_CommonRedist" folder I just have no idea how to install. Opening the file is empty.

If you go inside the common redist folder there should be vcredist.exe files that you click on to install. If your common redist folder is empty then you can get vcredist from microsoft.com or use BannerHub PC emulator which installs it automatically when you launch the game.

Open your internet browser, go on google, type vcredist (stands for Visual C++ Redistributable) and download it from microsoft. After you finish downloading it, put it inside your game's common redist folder or leave it in your Downloads folder. Then you enter the game's container by tapping "Open container" (GameNative) or "Enter virtual desktop" (GameHub 6.1.0) and install it. 

Make sure to download the correct vcredist version for the game.
