20.04 so far refusing to install wine32 ... so no Windows programs running ...

[shantiq]

... and therefore none or my Windows progs working
Tried a few things but at sea right now

Recently came up from 18.04 through 19.10 and finally to 20.04
Clever tips very welcome
Thanx

and tried again this time all good NO IDEA what happened


will mark as solved and thanx for input 1Fallen .... was truly puzzled

[#&thj^%]

Looks right to me....Is all good now?

[shantiq]

yes thank u 1fallen i can't pretend i understand what went wrong and works now but all good it seems had to reinstall winamp EAC and foobar as fresh but small price to pay :KS
these sequences (https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2447568&p=13974131#post13974131) might help some other hapless visitor you never know

Used this (https://wine.htmlvalidator.com/install-wine-on-ubuntu-20.04.html) and it fixed it i think

[#&thj^%]

Your Quite welcome, This<dpkg --print-foreign-architectures> Just shows this<i386>
What was flushed was done through the package manager, and not that command.
Hey All's Good though, everyone wins...;)
