: Poorly made repacks can lead to "infinite loading" screens, missing files, or crashes during gameplay.

: Ensures that no game or software data (such as textures, audio, or video) is downgraded or removed unless explicitly stated (e.g., "Selective Download").

Each of these stages introduces potential points of failure and risk. Removing components can inadvertently break dependencies; cracked activation mechanisms may be unstable; and the final binary can become a vector for malware if the repackager injects malicious code.
