Overview The “isdone.dll error” that appears with DODI Repack (and similar repack installers) is a runtime failure occurring during game installation. It signals that the installer (typically an Inno Setup or custom wrapper used by repacks) tried to unpack or decompress a large compressed file but failed when extracting data to disk or allocating memory.
