Just download the version for your OS. It contains all the files you need.

i think he meant the “nwjs-v” one the one that before the x64 folder
since it had many type, if you read beside the words its indication what OS for it,just download the one that you use.
though,correct me if im wrong.

I think I'm in the wrong thread, does this thread have the link to download the engine and make your own game in RPGMaker MV? If this isn't the place what is this thread about?
I'm quite a beginner so I'm a bit lost here

The OP has some links to some old versions of nwjs, which is the core RPGM MV games are based on. Once on the linked repository you can then find all versions of nwjs, old and new, by going up the directory tree. That's about all I can tell you I'm afraid.

so another noob question,and i need confirmation.
if we just wanted to download the engine we just need to "nwjs-v" (your operating system) correct?
but,what about the other files inside that folder are they relevant / somewhat important?
like, "nwjs-symbol”, “nwjs-SDK” , “nwjs-sdk-symbol” or inside folder "x64"?
and whats the differences between the content thats inside “live-build” folder,and the “newest version” thats on the main indexes? (the "v.0.88.0" folder)

symbol means "debug symbols". it is a version you give to bug testers so that their bug reports contain more useful information in case of crash.
SDK means "software developer kit". it is a version that contains both the stuff you need to play, but also the stuff you need to create content.
nwjs-sdk-symbol is a combination of both.

the program might be needing the sdk to apply updates to the game engine.
as updating the game's engine before running it is an option it has (you have to choose it, it won't do it automatically).
which usually improves performance and solves bugs. although in rare cases it can introduce new bugs. so keep this in mind.

I honestly don't recommend you even mess with any of this.
just use the program itself to launch games for you, don't mess with the files it downloads

i see.so the important ones are the main 3,the nwjs are the engine the 2 are needed if something needed to use for the engine incase of bugs and wanted upgrade, downgrade or just want something helps you to build or play content.
