Microsoft data access (mdac28) equivalent for wine 64?

Post by regis »

With foobar2000 32 bits I used a component called SMP (Spider Monkey Panel) https://github.com/TheQwertiest/foo_spider_monkey_panel that can load user made scripts. One of these scripts, Wil-B/Biography https://github.com/Wil-B/Biography need the installation of two winetricks verbs (wsh and mdac) in order to download the artist and album images

In recent times foobar2000 have a 64 bits version and a new component JSplitter https://hydrogenaudio.org/index.php/topic,126743.0.html can load the 32 bits script from SMP in the new fooabr2000-x64.

But the mdac28 (Microsoft data access) winetricks verb can't be installed in a 64 wine prefix, so the script can't download images.

What I need to do to work around this problem in a 64 bit wine prefix....

Just run the mdac28 installer without winetricks.
