Wine needs the 32 bit version to run a music converter called Sidify. Unfortunately it hasn’t been done before . I followed all the links I could find and read the Wiki about using wineprefixes; I can’t figure it it out. Must be over my head. Read the similar topics; but no go.Anyway, would somebody please give me the terminal commands to run wine in 32 bit? I think I can then just install Sidify.exe using wine 32 bit version.
Should I list this under Newbies instead?
The command is WINEPREFIX=~/.wine WINEARCH=win32
then run winecfg
to create the .wine folder, you can close the config window once it opens.
It’s asking for an operation:error: no operation specified
You should refer this to the wine hq forum.
as it is in no way Manjaro specific - but how wine is set up and used.
That said:
WINEARCH=win32
is what declares that wine is to run a 32 bit app and prepare for it
`WINEPREFIX= …’
is telling it where, in which directory, under which name … you want to install it.
That is ok. It’s not a trivial subject.
That also is what winetricks
and bottles
and lutris
and playonlinux
are there for to help you with this.
if i remember right. Wine gives you a big disclaimer specifically about this when you use winetricks and says that you have to remove wine and reinstall it in a 32bit version if you need to use 32bit programs.
