I am trying to install the Direct TV app so that I can watch my tv through my computer and I keep getting the following error message when I try to install it: Error Number: 0x80040707 Description: DLL function call crashed: SKUtil.SK_GetShellFolderPathA and then the installations stops. I am pretty new to Linux so I am not as familiar with how this all works. I am using Ubuntu. Any suggestions as to how to fix this? Thanks so much for the help!
