and what have you set for the Wine prefix folder? secondly, just use winetricks to install visual C stuff it's all named vcrunXXXX in Winetricks but you will need to address the error shown above

start with the wine icon there is something to be said for when the error message is completely informative. doesn't happen often, but this is one of those times

is it under applications? nvm it's select default wineprefix and then install a windows dll or component

is there a way to use a wine prefix template in lutris that comes with common gaming components like how bottles does it?
