You’d be surprised how many 3D models you can find on the internet are broken in some way. Modern slicers are pretty good at repairing the models without you even noticing.

PrusaSlicer will automatically repair models to a certain degree, but it may be necessary to fix the model using a dedicated service. If you are using PrusaSlicer under Windows 10, it will have access to Microsoft's APIs for repairing 3D models through Netfabb.
