Linux Mint Wine

I installed Wine using "sudo apt install wine". How to install Wine Mono/Gecko (Open With Windows Loader)?

 

I have to run Wine App in Terminal with "wine xxx.exe".

Should normally be installed automatically, when you run software that needs it. 

 

Otherwise, try running "wine winecfg"

You can also run apps in wine by setting wine as the program to open exe files with, that way you can just double click exe files to run them

Is it possible to run MSI Afterburner with Wine? Fraps works fine.

Linux is not Windows, if you want to use Linux then use native software.

Software running in WINE can not interact with hardware or other Linux Applications, it's also not a reliable way to run software in general.

I will note that Google should be able to quickly and succinctly answer this type of question. If you can’t find it with a search then by all means feel free to post here, but if the answer’s out there somewhere there’s little sense in waiting several hours to get a reply.

There's a trick.

 

Install Wine with:

 

sudo mkdir -pm755 /etc/apt/keyrings
wget -O - https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/winehq.key | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/keyrings/winehq-archive.key -

 

Noble

Ubuntu 24.04 & Linux Mint 22

 

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386

 

sudo wget -NP /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/dists/noble/winehq-noble.sources

 

sudo apt update

 

sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-stable

 

 

Remove Wine with:

 

sudo apt purge winehq-stable

 

Install Wine again with:

 

sudo apt install wine

 

Install Wine again:

 

sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-stable

 

And now you have (Open With Windows Loader).

If you don't install Wine with: sudo apt install wine, NONE Games are not working (DirectX 9 not installed).

There's no trick here. All this does is make upstream Wine, which may be newer, available to your Debian / Ubuntu installation. This may or may not be beneficial, depending on what you want to achieve.
