[MECCHA CHAMELEON] visual c++ 2015 error

OS: arch btw

SPECS: i5-1235u with 16gb ram and iris xe gpu

DOWNLOADED FROM: online-fix

launchers tried : steam and lutris

launch options: WINEDLLOVERRIDES="OnlineFix64,SteamOverlay64,winmm,dnet,steam_api64=n,b"

so it's showing that persistent visual c++ 2015 error and in the video I installed it through winetricks in the "~/games/umu/umu-default" prefix. but even after installing it was showing that error. I even tried installing with protontricks as I though maybe the prefix "umu" is created by proton so winetricks wasn't installing properly but that didn't helped as well.

what else should I try does anyone know the solution to this

EDIT -> alright so I got it working.. the thing was to install c++ 2026 instead of 2015. But still the game is NOT running through lutris it's showing "failed to get online fix interface". It's only running through steam.

And this "failed to get online fix interface" error I found on another post on reddit where they also had to run the game through steam only. See here : https://www.reddit.com/r/linux4noobs/s/5swRRAvzL5

Old laptop as a debian server

So I made my old laptop a server with debian (minimal no gui) installed on it. Now I wanna install services which are actually useful (I only tried running a minecraft server on it and used playit.gg as I wasn't able to port forward... I use tailscale tho) like jellyfin, vailtwarden etc. so tell me the ideal and best way to do it and also I wanna learn in the process. Should I install all these services in podman( docker basically) or directly on the system? Also I've heard about these "dashboards" and "proxmox" can you explain what are these and also how will they help.

My server specs :-

i51235u with 8gb ram (quite old)

xdg-desktop-portal not launching automatically all of a sudden

ABOUT PC:-

arch BTW with mangoWM as wayland compositor, i5-1235u with 16gb ram.

hey so my (i think) xdg-desktop-portal suddenly stopped working, when im opening flamehshot it shows "could not locate org.freedesktop.porrtal.Desktop" and I can't even stream on discord anymore.

when im typing "systemctl --user restart xdg-desktop-portal", it shows " dependency job for xdg-desktop-portal.service failed. See 'journalctl -xe' for details."

hmm okay don't know why but just ran "/usr/lib/xdg-desktop-portal" and now it's running again... the thing is this "xdg-desktop-portal" runs automatically and before it was working fine but this error arrived 3 days ago only.

altho I can take screenshots and stream now as I've added "/usr/lib/xdg-desktop/portal" in my autostart, still why it's not launching automatically all of a sudden?

my autostart.sh looked like (before adding) :-

dbus-update-activation-environment --systemd DISPLAY WAYLAND_DISPLAY XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP

qs -c noctalia-shell &

/usr/lib/xdg-desktop-portal-wlr &

[ALAN WAKE] the game crashes after a few seconds

pc specs : i5-1235u, 16gb ram

distro : arch linux

what already tried:-

I've tried on lutris as well but on there the game doesn't even open... (their I used proton-cachyos as well)

software info : downloaded from ankergames and on protondb it even has platinum rating

EDIT: it works with steam (adding a non-steam game) for some reason like out of the blue ( I didn't even downloaded anything extra). but still not working with lutris.
