Windows doesn't like you to use ':' in folders this caused issues for when CK1 did savestates in folders and now it's also messing with unable to add covers in Qt so better to replace them and also to avoid other issues now and the future.

The gameDB still had some leftover comments that aren't true anymore. In the past before 1.7.2002 / https://github.com/PCSX2/pcsx2/pull/3936 you needed to use full boot to correctly pass your chosen BIOS language to be piped to the game. Basically fast boot defaulted to the first entry in the available language list.
Full boot:
If you want to see BIOS logo - Good
Region check - Bad
Fast boot:
Immediately jump into the game - Good
Skips region check - Good
Now acts like full boot for languages - Good

Missing mipmap from the Europese Ace Combat Zero/4/5, Align Sprite for them and Round Sprite. Align Sprite for SoulCalibur series.
Metal Gear 2 substance gets round sprite for font and Metal Gear 3 Subsistence gets Special (Texture) for blurriness.
