[Solved]Help running YencPowerPost

Post by X_Splinter »

Hello guys.

Can anyone please teach me how to run YencPowerPost with Wine.

I have Ubuntu 8.10 and YencPP is a simply open source app. to upload files to Usenet.

I saw a pic of it in Linux with wine so there must be a way to do it.

When i try to open the exe simply nothing happens.

Thanks in advance

It needs mfc42.dll. Either copy it from a Windows install or use winetricks to install it. http://wiki.winehq.org/winetricks

The problem was mfc42.dll I did download it from the dll-files.com and was not working.

I used my windows xp mfc42.dll and now it is working fine.

Thanks guys once again :D
