All wine windows have blank (no text) dialog boxes

Post by depmco »

I'm a total Wine and Windows newcomer. Consequently, I'm sure I'm missing something obvious.

My system is linux mint 21.3, which in turn is based on Ubuntu 22.04
I've installed the appropriate version of wine-9.11.
My intent is to install the Analog Devices LTSPICE .msi file via msiexec.

Before attempting this however, all wine windows contain empty dialog boxes. I've installed msttcorefonts.
I've tried copying the contents of /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts to .wine/drive_c/windows/fonts; no change.
I've deleted .wine and attempted "wine winecfg", which produces a wine configuration window (with all boxes empty, no text) and
the following console output:
wine: created the configuration directory '/home/greg/.wine'
