non-heroic added app -> Installing required C++ libraries failure loop

I have already read through the support tickets related to this


-> click game -> winetricks button -> open gui -> select default wineprefix -> install windows DLL -> vcrun2022

I get the following outputted in order:

  1. You are usiong a 64bit wineprefix...... if any issues pleasew reset to 32bit clean
  2. checksum for /home/deck/.var/app-com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl/cache/winetricks/vcrun2022/vc_redist.x86.exe did not match try redownloading (shouldnt it be trying to use 64 bit instead ?)
  3. SHA256 missmatch...... (log below)..... continue anyway ?
  4. checksum failure again but this time /home/deck/.var/app-com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl/cache/winetricks/vcrun2022/vc_redist.x64.exe
  5. continuous loop
  6. try start game again, required c++ libraries
does select default wineprefix heroic/prefixes/defaut/<gamename>?
or mean any under heroic/prefixes/defaut?

This is often the result of an updated package such as vcrun2019.
If you are willing to accept the risk, you can bypass this check.
Alternatively, you may use the --force option to ignore this check entirely.

Continue anyway?
