AdobeAir
What is it?
"The Adobe AIR runtime enables developers to package the same code into native applications and games for Windows and Mac OS desktops as well as iOS and Android devices, reaching over a billion desktop systems and mobile app stores for over 500 million devices."
-from http://get.adobe.com/air/
What it does:
Installs the Adobe Air package.
When would I need it?
Certain Adobe products require this to be installed as a dependency.

POL_Call POL_Install_AdobeAir

corefonts
What is it?
"TrueType is an outline font standard developed by Apple and Microsoft in the late 1980s as a competitor to Adobe's Type 1 fonts used in PostScript. It has become the most common format for fonts on both the Mac OS and Microsoft Windows operating systems."
from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TrueType
What it does:
Downloads and registers TrueType fonts (TTF). Here is a list of the fonts that will be installed into the given virtual drive:
- andale mono
- arial black
- arial (bold, italic, bold italic)
- comic sans ms (bold)
- courier new (bold, italic, bold italic)
- georgia (bold, italic, bold italic)
- impact
- times new roman (bold, italic, bold italic)
- trebuchet (bold, italic, bold italic)
- verdana (bold, italic, bold italic)
- webdings
When would I need it?
Any time you experience missing text in an application, this would be the first place you would want to start. This is usually installed by default, though. If this does not work, try tahoma or tahoma2 from the Install Components tab, as those are the usual suspects in such acts of font thievery.
Script/Shell command:
POL_Install_corefonts

crypt32
What is it?
crypt32 does quite a few things relating to decrypting/encrypting data. Basic information in the links below.
What it does:
"It supports encryption, decryption, and manipulation of certificates and related data structures."
from http://wiki.winehq.org/Crypt32
When would I need it?
Most of this is taken care of within Wine via the builtin dll. You may run into times when the native dll is needed, in which case the POL debug log will spit out an error saying that it tried to do something with it and it failed (like unhandled exception or cannot find crypt32.dll, etc.). If you do happen to run into an error like this, we highly encourage you to report it to https://appdb.winehq.org so that the community there can possibly implement a fix that is native to Wine, eliminating the need for the actual Windows dll.
Script/Shell command:
POL_Install_crypt32
