Can I just move fitgirl's .exe into the game I legitimately bought on Steam's folder and run it? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

long story short, I bought FFXV long before I cared about Denuvo but never played it, the game got cracked but Square Enix still haven't removed Denuvo from the game on Steam; now I don't want to install Denuvo spyware, if I download the game from Steam, don't launch it, and just overwrite the .exe with the one from a repack, am I in the clear? would it work? I'd like to get the achievements, otherwise I'd just install a repack

that's true, I'm no denuvo expert so I'll leave the talking to the actual scene who cracked it! thanks!
