Program is not working. Requires .net framework even though i have installed it.

Post by Kerimcanak »

Program right here http://karmian.org/projects/ps3splitter/download (which I have downloaded the version 1.1.5.2) is not working and shows this error:

"This setup requires .Net Framework 3.5"

I have installed the specific .net framework through winetricks but it still shows this error. How can I fix it?

Thanks

Strange, the installer asks for version 3.5 but the program itself needs version 4.0.
Workaround:
1. Extract the exe with innoextract

Code: Select all

sudo apt install innoextract
innoextract ps3splitter-1-1-5-2.exe
2. Create a clean wineprefix with the .Net Framework version 4

Code: Select all

WINEPREFIX=~/ps3splitter winetricks -q dotnet40
3. Move the app directory inside the wineprefix

Code: Select all

mv app/ ~/ps3splitter/drive_c/ps3splitter
4. Run PS3Splitter

Code: Select all

cd ~/ps3splitter/drive_c/ps3splitter
WINEPREFIX=~/ps3splitter wine PS3Splitter.exe
