Re: Cambridge English Pronouncing Dictionary runs only once

The problem has been solved. In the folder that contained the setup files there was a sub-folder named Autorun. Inside that folder there was a file named autorun.exe. This loaded the dictionary and it works fine now.

The dictionary runs not from any place in which wine installed it but from the autorun.exe contained in the installation cd contents. I would like to add that when I tried to remove the installed program and run the autorun.exe it actually reinstalled the program. Then once the dictionary is installed, autorun.exe runs the dictionary itself. The sounds are playing perfectly well and it's really helpful. Hope someone finds this information useful.

Thanks for the valuable comments!!

Nice to hear that it works for you. Just for your information and without knowing the application, in general autorun.exe starts another .exe, so it might be interesting to find out, which one. But if the application is working fine, it probably isn't worth the trouble.
