I actually ran into this issue the first time I opened the game. Panicking, I ctrl+alt+deleted to open task manager. Funnily enough, the black screen disappeared for me after doing that lol
you just need to put the GoWR.exe in the same folder and then just launch it. Just ignore the notification error message you don't need to turn off the internet connection just run the gowr.exe.
I think what their asking isn't so much HOW to use it but more along the lines of what exactly went into making it aka what changes did you make to the GoWR.exe? If any then why? If no changes where made than what makes this different from the original GoWR.exe as in is it a different version? If so is this version official/unofficial? Whats the source of the version? (Steam depot / Internet forum / Discord)
Admittedly I would also like to knows these things as well not that I'm saying it doesn't work mind you but just that this is an executable (exe) file and the most important and effective way of preventing malware is to understand what it is your installing, downloading, or in any way granting access to your computer.
Side Note: I'm not saying this mod is malware or making any accusation of such also I'm not saying antiviruses don't work but just that they are tools and as such can't ever be expected to replace basic human judgement as you can give an incompetent man the best tools in the world but he will still fall victim to failure. Please also be aware that I'm not trying to be rude or needy and having made more than a few mods on my own I fully understand the difficult and time consuming nature of these things and thus appreciate the work you have done so far.
The problem with the black screen only occurs when a different language (voice output) is set in the "steam_emu" than the language in the game. You don't need a file for that. Simply adjust the "steam_emu" in the root directory and you're done.
