Hi guys! I am new to Wine, and one of my all-time favourite porgrams ever, IrfanView, is the first one I'm trying to run with this emulator. I got past the installation, which needed MFC42.dll, by installing vcrun6 (MS Visual C++ 6 sp4 libraries: mfc42, msvcp60, msvcrt) using WineTricks. Now IrfanView itself still won't run. I re-installed my system after screwing it up last week, before

OK, so what is the answer to jsmith's question?

Wine is a program that enables users to run Windows programs on non-Windows operating systems, including Linux, and Mac OSX. Why would you want to install it on XP?

DOS ".EXE" programs aren't "automagically" being opened by WINE, but with the "Archive Manager. I found this by Right Clicking on the Wine EXE file. This opens the "Archive Manager" as the default application, not "Wine Windows Program Loader" as it used to. I have confirmed this with the native 8.10 version and the latest WINE from Wine HQ.

I'm not sure if it's related or different, but I've found that the latest version of Irfanview (I think that's 4.23) will install, but will not run properly on wine in OSX. I had to move back to Irfanview 4.10 which still works fine on my system. I'm running OSX Tiger and Wine ver. wine-0.9.53. I didn't want to fuss with why 4.23 won't work since it wasn't

In XP, Irfanview presents up to 90 (18 rows, 5 cols) of files in the "Open" file dialog box. That is, up to 90 files are displayed at once for a selected directory using the "open folder icon". Using WINE with Ubuntu 9.04 and Irfanview 3.98 or 4.25, the open box will only display up to 12 files (6 rows by 2 cols). This is very inconvenient for a directory with hundreds of

Doh123, how is running a program off an NTFS partition asking for trouble? Ntfsprogs seems to handle it just fine. I know that NTFS doesn't let you mark a file as executable, and that the filesystem is susceptible to fragmentation, but you should just be able to tell it to run rather than display and be good. It shouldn't cause destruction. I think there might even be an NTFS defrag tool

Environment: Ubuntu 8.01, Wine 1.0.0, fresh installs. I'm trying to get Irfanview (yes I know about the alleged clone. It isn't) to work as an "open with" program for .jpg files. I have placed it in the "open with" table When I click (gnome) on a .jpg, Irfanview opens with a blank screen. I've done some experimenting and it appears that the arguments are not

I'm experimenting with Wine under Kubuntu Hardy Heron, on a former Vista laptop (boy, does it run noticeably faster on Linux). The deal is that my son wants to move to Linux on his desktop, but still have access to particular games that he plays. The laptop is the testbed. Before trying to install any of the games, I tried out three applications that I find useful, Orbitron, Country Codes and

Why isn't it possible to simply unregister users who send spam like this? If it's not a bot and is a registered user, shouldn't there be some consequence to posting spam? Recognizing that the idiot could re-register with another name and manually post more of this again, it seems like "we" should be making it more difficult for him/her to continually pollute the list.

Can wine only be installed on a linux platform or is there a way to download it and run it on windows xp?

Hi :) I installed TWAIN drivers for my scanner under wine ... everything done with success, next I installed IrfanView ... everything done ... but when I want to choose TWAIN driver in IF it says that it can't find driver. Is there any solution? Wine doesn't support TWAIN or maybe its IrfanView problem? Greetings, Nookie

I reconfigured WINE, and deleted and reinstalled Irfanview 4.25 and I get this message when installing: wine iview425_setup.exe fixme:system:SystemParametersInfoW Unimplemented action: 88 (SPI_SETICONS) err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0x163d3c "?" wait timed out in thread 0039, blocked by 0010, retrying (60 sec) It also sets program to 'sleeping" in System

I'm trying to get Irfanview to work with no success so far. According to the instructions I have I need to copy "mfc42.dll" to "~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32", which I've done. I've confirmed that the file is there. I also have copied the install program to "~/.wine/drive_c/". I then try installing the program (wine iview398.exe) but get the

Hi, I'm new to Wine and understand very little about it. However, I did manage (somehow) to get Irfanview running in Winebottler which makes me very happy. Now that I've done that, how would I go about installing the "Plugin" file which would normally be installed within the Irfanview program in Windows? I just tried to execute the setup.exe and it started the install process

Don't know what's wrong, but the only managed window I get is for Forte Agent. I can't get Notepad, Regedit and IrfanView to run managed. wine 10510 on debian testing/woody Using wine without windows. I ran the winesetup utility and set win98 and managed. Setting wine --managed before executing the program also didn't help. Anyone ? Jeremy

I'd like to know how to call a program to run or open a specific file. something like this: system('"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\IrfanView\\i_view32.exe"','-A:\\ teste.jpg') is not working. any help will be appreciated ____________ Paulo E. Cardoso [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi all, Did anybody notice a really slow access from Windows 7 (especially from the MS Office suite) when trying to open a Word-doc for example, that sits on a samba share on a computer recently upgraded to CentOS 6.6? It can take up to two-three minutes to open a 20 kB Word-doc... I tested with the latest available LibreOffice for Windows on the same Word-docs, but this one doesn't show
