Where do y'all recommend looking to find no-disc game patches in general? (lemm.ee)

Mostly asking because I've never used these before due to never needing to. That, and I have a few old disc based PC games that I'd love to be able to straight up boot without the game disc. These are games I could just pirate, but I figure I already own them in disc, so I'd rather see if there are any reputable places with no-disc patches. The places I've looked in the megathread don't have what I'm looking for.

Closest they have is either a link to the game on another platform in the case of My Abandonware due to it being sold, or a link to just straight up pirate the full thing in the case of Magipack Games. I've also done some digging on the Internet Archive but have yet to yield results (probably because I suck at finding things there). Still gonna keep looking there, but any helpful info would be much appreciated.

I don't think I can share the game names, even in DM, due to the rules here, so site mainpages are my best shot.

oooh nostalgic.

What I like about gamecopyworld: it's been around forever!

What I hate: no standards. Sometimes you'll find cracks for a win98 game or an XP game and they'll require sys/kernel functionality that didn't exist until windows 7. I mean.. what if I wanna play period correct? And NOT on windows 7 or newer?
