It's now working.
For future ref I'll say that the autolink got me this file:
dotnet-runtime-3.1.26-win-x64.exe
While what the game needs to run is:
windowsdesktop-runtime-3.1.23-win-x64.exe
To whomever is reading this, note that the versions differ 3.1.26(wrong version) and 3.1.23(the needed one).
Cheers! :)
