Required prefix files are missing, running `verifyWinePrefix` to create prefix
Hi everyone,
tried to install heroic and while trying to run a installer "nothing happens". Checking on the logs and I get the following message:

Not quite sure what it means - I installed the latest proton GE-Proton releases?

What game are you installing and how? You may also need to ensure you have wine dependencies for your system installed since you used the deb
Install Wine Dependencies by following this guide
If this does not immediately resolve your issue, you might also have to delete your Wineprefix (by default it's in
~/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/default/<game name>)
Alternatively, you can use the Flatpak version of Heroic: https://flathub.org/apps/com.heroicgameslauncher.hglenvironmental-rose•3mo ago
post the entire general log, not just the parts you think we need
Please see the following images on how to send a Heroic / Legendary / GOGDL / Nile log file:

Thanks for the quick support - Installing Wine dependencies resolved the issue
