Germany was never for a moment capable of invading, conquering, and successfully pacifying Britain. Thus, any hold on Europe (on top of the one it already had from Dunkirk to D-Day) would have always been tenuous and ultimately temporary. Besides, Italy was always a paper tiger and would have allowed the United States/Allies to invade the continent even without a landing in France. It would have taken longer and cost more lives, but Germany could not have won once the war went global.

Had Germany adopted a policy of containment of UK power they could have waited until their nuclear program was succesful. It would have been game set match for the Brits.

Hitler's fixation on Russia is what destroyed his dreams. He had the manpower to win in Western Europe. He should have hit Africa to secure oil and waited patiently until 1947. Germany had a HUGE technological advantage that grew wider every year.
