First of all sorry for saying that cursed name, but a school teacher asked me to install it on her laptop, i had no idea how to but after following some tutorials online, it displays this error:

Windows couldn't open C:\Source\install.wim

I would be very grateful for your help

Hiya there! I am DeafBlind so windows' interfaces aren't the best for me. But you might get further help if you try searching that exact error. Which you should then be able to follow in the Windows' interface on how to fix it.

That how 95% of computer errors are resolved. So it should comes in handy. :)

Hey, I've been meaning to ask you this, but you're both deaf and blind? And that's interesting that Windows doesnt't have good interfaces, since I always heard Windows is better in that department compared to Linux.

That is indeed correct and thanks for asking of me! :) Indeed, I believe Linux USUALLY ships with customizations for their interfaces. On Linux Mint, I can change the themeing, color of folders, display settings and so forth. Add on top that Linux Mint ships with good accessibility settings (that's normally literally hundreds otherwise/user) it's a pretty significant thing to me.

The only thing that gets me that I have to restart the interface (Desktop Environment) every time I goes into Minetest full screen. Since i need to switch off the accessibility settings. Since the game already comes with MANY scaling options so I can still plays it provided it's also in full screen.

Thank you very much for asking of me and caring to be of understanding of me. :) That is indeed correct, I am DeafBlind meaning as you guessed significant lack of vision as well as hearing. My biggest concerns are actually being able to be involved in finding people and possibly comes something of it. Which is why up until I created my deafblindminetestgaming.com site. I been having issues with this because I lost my most involved forum I was in to supar staffing of helping me with two concerning reports. As well as Discord giving me such pains with my account because it's being "comprised" regardless of the passwords I use. So I had to stop using it as their 2FA is a piece of trash ONLY allowing smartphones. Which doesn't works for me. :(

So yea a LOT had happened the first half of the year and still trying to "get back up to speed" to this very day.
