Hi,
I needed to run a Windows executable, thus I installed Wine on my Linux Mint 19 (x64). This executable file required .NET Framework 4.61, so I also installed Winetricks. Getting this right took so long that I even forgot the required version of .NET and jumped into the installation of dotnet40. I, soon, realized that I needed 4.61, so via the uninstaller in Winetricks, I uninstalled .NET stuff. However, I guess they were not completely uninstalled, because it told me that I could not install 4.61 when dotnet40 was already installed.
After being not able to resolve the issue, I decided to re-install Wine and ran multiple commands to purge Wine. I also searched for Wine and deleted the files associated with it.
To reinstall Wine, I executed the following command:
In return, it said "Wine-stable is already the newest version (3.0.2~bionic)."
Then I executed this command:
But the output was "Command 'wine' not found, but can be installed with: sudo apt install wine-stable".
Now that I cannot even install Wine, I have no idea what to do.
Any advice is appreciated,
Thank you
