two weeks ago I migrated to wonderful KDE MX (I have a relatively new hardware and my old PC died). I installed WINE and it worked fine. Then I had some issues with remembering passwords, so I tried a MX kfce version first, but because I prefer this one (KDE), I changed back. I installed Wine again. And it doesn't work anymore. Like before It does install, open a configuration, allows me to choose Windows version, I confirm Windows 7, close the window, try to run MS windows installation file and at this point nothing much more happens. I think (not 100% sure) the first time (two weeks ago) the WINE version was 5.0.4 and now it is 6.5-1 (both occasions I installed WINE directly from MX package installer/popular applications).
I don't run many Micro$oft apps on Linux, but there are some small applications like "Irfanview" and "YASC sokoban" that I really don't want to live without.
By the way, my 2 years old laptop runs Linux Mint and there I have WINE 4 - works perfectly for me.
I'm not trying to suggest that older versions of WINE were better, and maybe I'm doing something wrong with this current one.
Thank You
