Wine install for Watchtower Library 2014 3rd attempt

Post by lare.forums »

I am going to make a 3rd attempt to install Wine and Watchtower Library 2014, after I uninstall Wine and Windows, etc. My first attempt did not result in a finished Wine install. My 2nd attempt seemed to install Wine OK, and I seemed to be able to install Watchtower Library. But when I tried to start it, it started to open then stopped.

I have scoured this web site and Google search. Here is my list of what I think I will try next. I will keep track of exactly what I do, and error messages, and symptoms, etc. Any suggestions before I try again would be greatly appreciated. Here is my next approach....
