How to solve? package-manifests.ini", line="67371", error="invalid value definition"
Seems like something's wrong with your MikTeX installation. Here's an issue on GitHub where others have had similar issues and here's another one.

Need help with ACS bibtex style
For two, you can resort to its analogue within the KOMA class/bundle. Depending on your locale, this may require some adjustments for the paper format (ISO A4 vs e.g., US letter), but this is quick click in general setup (in case you happen to use MiKTeX, one of the tabs asks you for the format typically used) and in the .tex preamble. Else, achemso works just fine, i.e. in the text you get the number-based references.

Darkmode broken in Setzer – is it still maintained?
Or, does the flatpack attempt an installation of a large portion/all of TeXLive? (Aiming for a more granular approach, to fetch only the packages I really want [with optional, yet independent download of the documentation] was a major motivation to move to MikTeX (non-Docker) installation equally running from a a thumb drive, or in Linuxes. This was something in close to 100...200 MB in total as a starter package (already with its package manager), to which one can add/update/remove by like/dislike, need/no-need. And by the documentation, an installer for Fedora 37 equally is provided.).

LaTeX as a replacement for MS Word
texdoc comes with TeXLive only. With MiKTeX (which equally works well in Linux as in Windows, and from a thumb drive), you select the packages (or their documentation, or both) of interest for download. A double click opens the .pdf (screenshot).

I've got a problem
does the compilation with pdfLaTeX work? Do you use an instance of MiKTeX recently updated? A note about the GUI used would complement a problem report. If you use e.g., TeXStudio, then you already have a preview of the compiled document to monitor the advance of your work. You still can setup the program to open an external pdfviewer (e.g., sumatra) for a subsequent detailed inspection, print to paper of the pdf, etc. later.

Trying to compile Tex file using texniccenter (latex->ps->pdf) sequence but it's not working
Because you mention Texniccenter I assume the operating system you use is Windows. Often, your TeX installation is either a ProTeXt DVD/iso (source of the soon retired project), or miktex. MiKTeX can install many of potentially missing usepackages during the first compilation if 1) the computer can connect with the servers of CTAN and 2) the user has permission to install programs on drive C:\. (In addition, MikTeX' package management offers you to list the packages installed/update them if you wish.) In case you do not possess the permissions to install a program, consider the portable installation, on an USB thumb drive -- very handy e.g., when passing the library's computer without installation privileges. MikTeX's installation comes with a light TeX editor, too -- not as many buttons to click as TeXniccscenter or TeXStudio, but cross platform.

Lyx export ODF using mk4ht
With an export of your .lyx to .tex, which may be submitted to pandoc. The entry Demos showcases some examples from which you may infer the syntax, the entry Demos -> Try pandoc online offers an installation free test ground e.g., from latex to .docx or .odt (or others). The less complex the .tex file, the greater the chances this minimal version will work, so forget (for now) illustrations and bibliographic references. However, if you install pandoc (freely available, cross-platform) and read the documentation, you may access much more functionality (including insertion of images, use of a bibliography; generation of .pdf with pdfLaTeX [e.g., with MikTeX], etc.) There equally is a r/pandoc, too.

Math equations' font in KaTeX
Give me some rope here, because you don't describe the installation available to you. I assume it is possible for you to collect and process the .md files locally. If so, a joint installation of miktex (for the part of e.g., rendering equations with pdfLaTeX), and pandoc for the conversion of file formats, e.g., markdown to .pdf, is handy.

Problems Installing Tex Live 2023
LaTeX itself does not come with GUI. Some distributions add a dedicated editor, which might have an icon. Documents are compiled in a terminal or via editor that uses terminal commands under the hood. You could install an editor of your choice e.g. TeXStudio or TeXWorks.

Advice to write a PhD thesis using LaTeX?
Installation on a mac is pretty easy using the mactex package. Then for the editor itself I like TexStudio. Overleaf has the advantage of included backup and collaboration tools; if you use a local file don't forget to set up a back up/versioning system.

Please help me get started with LaTex on Mac
If you are interested in working locally (not in web interface like e.g. Overleaf) then I will suggest MacTeX + TexStudio.

Lyx export ODF using mk4ht
Depending on the complexity of the project ahead, consider an editor which writes plain .tex files because LyX' own (default) format adds a layer of complexity. Perhaps you are/become comfortable with vim or Emacs (which takes some time get familiar for both) and their extensions for LaTeX, perhaps TeXmaker or TeXStudio (both freely available and cross-platform) is an option for you if you know that there are programs around to import e.g., spreadsheet data easier into a .tex than the manual import. While your mileage may vary, it is not that hard -- have a look at learnlatex.org.

Ask HN: What LaTeX editor do you use?
I use TeXstudio [1], which is really good with tables, and supports macros which tremendously help speed up the writing process.
When writing for group projects, we use Overleaf. Its Git feature also makes it possible to write locally in TeXstudio and then push the changes to Overleaf.

Writing software, documents in separate files can be linked in a single document and reorganized, while still getting total word count
For Latex are several GUIs like TexStudio, TeXnicCenter, TeXworks or Overleaf (Webbased). But I understand that Latex looks quite complicate. If you are familiar with coding or even simple HTML you are good to go. Your idea with CSS etc sounds way more complicated than just use Latex with it's powerful features.
