Hi I am trying to install .net 4.8.1 on my linux mint but the installation hangs here:

This is my terminal window:

Code: Select all

sudo winetricks --self-update
then

Code: Select all

winetricks -q dotnet48

Unfortunately this did not help me as I already have 4.8 installed and the version I need is 4.8.1 as noted on the title.

Use a clean wineprefix?

According to: https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager. ... &iId=41505
They were able to install it.

I was trying to run it as an executable and installed it manually.

Good morning Believe82.

According to the link you provided, the .NET Framework 4.8.1 was tested by two submitters and rated by both as not installable and garbage.
What was not tested

running it, as it doesn't install or doesn't install correctly
This is identical to the experience I had to date (KUbuntu & Debian).

CodeWeaver's cxoffice aka CrossOver v25 (equivalent to wine 10.0) does not offer a recipe either.

I guess it is safe to say that .NET 4.8.1 can be considered as unsupported for now.
