[Question] What is the safest way to play a game that uses a modded Steam_api.dll to avoid getting banned?

Hypothetically, if someone were to download a Steam game from FG what's the best operating procedure to avoid being Steam banned? For example, I understand that steam_api.dll will often be quarantined by MS Defender because the game uses a modded version of that file. Once it's restored what steps would you take to proceed? Log out of steam? Disable internet access? Kill all Steam processes?

You won't get banned if you properly apply the crack. It won't contact the steam servers anymore.

I'm not certain, but perhaps some games are pre-cracked. For instance, some from that girl who's fit.

I know you’re trying to be delicate, but all this information we’re sharing is publicly accessible and likely indexed by something so you just end up making the conversation harder to follow

Just my 2 cents
