Can I ask: How? What do you do to install that, and don't you mean c++ runtime? Also I've never tinkered with winecfg, I fear that I might break things. What are some settings that are worth looking at?

I'm asking caz I'm going crazy trying to play games on linux, if I buy them on steam it should just reportedly work, but non-steam games or cracked ones, I either have a very hard time starting, or it works, but just barely.

On winecfg you can try the checks on the Graphics tab, it shouldn't break anything. Also, try to change the Windows version. Sometimes either XP or 7 work better. You're right about it being c++, not sure which one I installed, maybe this one: https://github.com/abbodi1406/vcredist
