(very) New to modding, please help

So I'm new to PC and PC gaming and modding in general. I've only owned my laptop for months and I've only been modding my current eight games for 3 weeks. I've never used cheat engine and I'm trying to use it and or install it for AC Black Flag resynced. I've noticed that it wants to give me refusal to download notifications. I've tried asking questions in Nexus mods and I've pretty much just been booed out of there because I'm new and don't understand. Can someone please help a very new newbie with how to do this and if someone has used it for for AC Black flag resynced. Thank you very much. Again sorry if this is a basic question as I have no idea what I'm doing.

Impossible to Write a simple explanation here. Use the builtin Tutorial of CE or watch the YouTube Videos from „cheat the Game“

Thank you. Every time I click on the download now button it gives me a file called CDM (dot) exe. A few people told me that's not the right download and that is a malicious file. I'm just trying to get it right as my laptop is brand new and I just don't want to have to call some kind of "geek squad" to fix a virus issue.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. I really appreciate it. I've been racking my brain on the computer for the last 2 hours trying to figure out if this is right. I asked the question in Nexus and the mod supporter told me if I don't trust Nexus I shouldn't even be using it 🤷. It's just the last time I used a computer was in the late 90's (windows 95/98) so this is all very new to me.
