Maybe specify more info on how exactly do you run the software, via command line / console, what is the exact output of the console etc.

I run it in VS code with an extension called Love2d support which lets me just use ALt + L or try to run it in the apps built it terminal

It opens when i use Alt + L To show the "Ms-Gamingoverlay Link" Error Message

And when i use the Terminal I get this message:
love. : The term 'love.' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable
program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try
again.

It’s love . not love. (There is space between love and .)

Also make sure, that love is installed and is in your %PATH%
