Patches are like fixes for games but sometimes people could make patches like mods.

"Patch" usually means a patch to the source code, which makes it essentially a different version of the game. They can distributed as a build, source archive, source repo, or *.patch file, maybe other ways. What patches are you looking at?

You need to recompile for the patches to take effect, and compiling is a PITA on Windows.
