How I install Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library on PlayOnLinux? In Wine I use Winetricks, but it doesn't affect PlayOnLinux... :(

hello,

I am thinking about setting up an auto-reply for people who just don't show respect to this team by not being polite when posting ...
It never killed anyone to say hello or to ask a question nicely (or both)
>_<

If there is a problem, fill out complaint form and place it in an envelope addressed to the name of the hospital in which you were born....

Hi everyone.
I'm new here, and pretty new to linux (hence my use of pretty ubuntu).
I thought this would be the best place to bring this up.
I own the steam version of Left 4 Dead 2 which unfortunately needs Visual C++ to run on Wine. I have had the game running through Wine but would much prefer to have this game run through Playonlinux thanks to the ease of use this gives. I know this is the problem with this game because It cuts off at the exact same spot that it did before I installed Visual C++ for Wine.
I guess I would like to know how I get Visual C++ installed into my Steam prefix. As far as coding and terminal stuff goes I'm a novice so would love to be guided through any complex procedure. My question is the same as CheatCat but with a smiley face instead of an angry face. (I turned that frown upside down).
Thanks to all who contribute to this application by the way, it is appreciated.
Rick
