==== Download RufzXP ====
* Download latest RufzXP, self extracting installer version (exe) [[https://www.rufzxp.net/]]
==== Check installed architectures ====
* Verify 64-bit architecture. The following command should respond with "amd64".dpkg --print-architecture
* See if 32-bit architecture is installed. The following command should respond with "i386".dpkg --print-foreign-architectures
* If "i386" is not displayed, execute the following.sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
* Recheck with.dpkg --print-foreign-architectures
==== Add the WineHQ Ubuntu repository ====
* Open a terminal and go to your Downloads directory.cd ~/Downloads
* Get and install the repository key.wget -nc https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/winehq.key
sudo -H gpg -o /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/winehq.key.gpg --dearmor winehq.key
* Add the repository.sudo add-apt-repository "deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/ $(lsb_release -sc) main"
* Update the package database.sudo apt update

* The next command will install Wine Stable. If you prefer Wine Development or Wine Staging, replace winehq-stable with either winehq-devel or with winehq-staging.sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-stable
* Verify the installation succeededwine --version
==== Configure Wine ====
* The default Wine configuration prepares Wine as a Windows 7 environment, which is good for some older Windows apps, but many contemporary apps will be better matched to Windows 8.1 or Windows 10. In addition, other configuration options may be significant.
* To bring up Wine's configuration panel, open a Terminal window and execute winecfg. When prompted, set your preferred version of Windows and accept all offers to install Mono and Gecko.
* Depending on the version of Wine, Gecko may need to be installed twice (for 32-bit and for 64-bit) or not at all. (Wine 6.0.2 will install Gecko twice. Wine 6.17 and later will not ask to install Gecko, but a Windows app that needs Gecko will, during installation, prompt to be allowed to install it.)wine winecfg
* If you are creating custom Wine prefixes, this configuration must be repeated for each prefix.
