Can't install an application #36

Closed ghost closed 11 years ago

ghost commented 11 years ago

I have no idea how am I supposed to install an application with this tool. I've read documentation twice. Whatever I do the 'installation wizard' option is greyed out.

Please fix documentation, there is no description of installing an app.

@ukaszg I suppose you are using old version of q4wine. Please consider updating to latest 1.0-r1 release.

In fact 'installation wizard' was never implemented.

You can install applications in following ways:

  1. Installing Windows Applications;
  2. Using winetriks plugin;
  3. Using run dialog File -> Run or Run entry in context menu for Prefix/Icon view;

  1. Personally I prefer install applications using wine's file explorer: you will find it's icon in 'system' folder for each prefix in programs tab;
