Please install winetricks before installing Microsoft Office 2016!

Error In Main Please Install Winetricks Before Installing Microsoft Office 2016!


How can I get playonlinux to install Microsoft Office 2016. The options from the install menu only go up to 2013.

Is there a more recent version of PlayOnLinux (or indeed Wine) I can download to enable installation of MS Office 2016?

The steps I take are:

1. open PlayOnLinux
2.click Install
3. Click Office
   returns a list of several software packages including MS Office 2007, 2010 and 2013 (but alas not 2016)

  • The script:

    #!/bin/bash
    
    # CHANGELOG
    # Version 0.0.1 by N0rbert - with Wine 3.0 it crashes on Welcome screen when trying
    # to call "unimplemented function KERNEL32.dll.FindNLSStringEx called in 32-bit code"
    # So we need Wine 3.4+ here, but I can't run this script with it on my Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.
    #
    # based on Version 1.1.0.0 [Quentin Pâris and Eduardo Lucio (Questor)] (2018-02-17 15-24) - Paris/Brazil
    # for office2007pro (playonlinux://www.playonlinux.com/repository/download.php?id=2665)
