Looking up guides on how to install wine can vary. Some say, “sudo apt install wine” and others have you install the 32 and 64bit versions. My machine is 64 bit, but some guides tell you to enable 32bit.

Do I need to install both 64 and 32bit versions? Or is just using “install wine” sufficient?

    I’ve been bouncing between live versions of ubuntu and mint

    Ah okay, is this problem on Ubuntu or on Mint (or are you going to tackle it on both 😜)?

    I’m still learning, so thank you for educating a linux ignoramus like myself.

    It has been my pleasure fam!

      I actually don’t think I need to use wine anymore. I was trying to use it to get some music vsts, but I think I can do that through different means. But now I realize that it didn’t work in mint because I installed the wrong one from the software store

        Pro-tip: Always look for (alt) software found on Linux before you gamble with Wine. https://alternativeto.net/ provides an excellent resource on that.
