renaming the folder seems to have worked but it's not really loading too well, fingers crossed

I see. That sounds a lot as if your AV software blocked the file (also the point with renaming the directory, the software blocks the filename as well, until it's decided how to go on or the computer is restarted).
What you can do is to go to your AV software and check the quarantined files.
I think it's a false positive however. Check the file size, it should be 653824 Bytes.
I'll download it and run a scan myself this evening.

What I can say so far is that Anon and Mega and Mix have identical content (Racity is only at 50%, can check it later), so whatever is the problem on your PC, it's not depending on Mixload.
I don't know what these versions are based on (Steam, itch, ...), but the .exe file differs from my Gamejolt version in two small sections, all the rest is equal. My best guess is that in these two sections the access to steam.dll or something similar happens, since I checked the file and my AV didn't find anything suspicious.
If you are unhappy with the download options, I suggest buying the game on itch.io or - if you get off on DRM, censorship and seprated DLCS - on Steam. It's not that expensive.

Any solution to an empty house? I see no NPC's and it looks as if the story is not loading properly? My folder at
C:\Users\USER\Documents\Eek\House Party\Mods\Stories is empty and has no story but maybe this doesn't matter?

If the game behaves like previous versions, it will download the current base story at startup. Most likely there is an old version that blocks it.
Delete the "Eek" directory (%userprofile%\Documents\Eek) completely, then also delete the game directory in appdata, I don't remember which one of these is the correct one that contains the game's cached files.
I think it's LocalLow, but don't quote me on that. It's easy to find out anyway.
%userprofile%\AppData\Local\Eek
%userprofile%\AppData\LocalLow\Eek
%userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\Eek
I deleted the following folders
C:\Users\USER\Documents\Eek
C:\Users\USER\AppData\LocalLow\Eek
Disabled Windows Defender Firewall (got no additional firewalls or AV installed).
Launched game as administrator.
In game main menu under "which story would you like to play" I see ORIGINAL STORY only. I start new game and spawn facing the front door with empty house (NO NPC).

I'm afraid my wisdom finishes here. Try the official forum.I deleted the following folders
C:\Users\USER\Documents\Eek
C:\Users\USER\AppData\LocalLow\Eek
Disabled Windows Defender Firewall (got no additional firewalls or AV installed).
Launched game as administrator.

I checked now the downloads from all 4 sites and they are identical. The exe is also the same as my official one from Gamejolt.
Make an exception for the file in your AV and report it as false positive.
this is my first time downloaing the game but i cant click on New Game i can click on the other stuff

Question about upcoming female MC update. Can I flash my boobs and pussy or walking around naked? Will NPC have different reaction to female MC nakedness compared to male MC? I mean they are cheering for Stephanie dance topless so it should be the same for female MC, no?
Which is fine when it makes sense... which is not necessarily the case here.
I can see the reasoning behind locking Rachel content once Vicky show up considering the story behind it, but the reverse makes no sense. Especially since Rachel makes it clear she knew those texts came from MC and not from Vicky... so there is no reason why you shouldn't be able to invite Vicky (or have Rachel invite her) once you complete Rachel's story arc.

You can suggest a change to that story in the official forum, maybe they'll listen
