wine users - Apr 2012 - Getting Windows Movie Maker 6.0 To Run

I have Ubuntu 11.10 as my OS and Wine 1.5 with all updates. I have installed
Windows Movie Maker 6.0. Wine will open the installer with no problem, open the
uninstaller with no problem but the exe to open the program doesn't open
anything. The HD light blinks like its working but goes no further than that.

Has anyone encountered this and what might the fix be? I've watched videos
on installing windows aps and using them with Wine and I've done all these
things in the tutorials still to no avail.

I would really like to get this to work as I prefer WMM to any of the programs
I've seen under Linux.

Thanks for your help.

The bug hasn't been updated in awhile; you might want to add a comment that
this is still an issue in current Wine.

Hi;

Thanks for the tip. I have reported the situation on the bug forum.

I also thank you so much.
