Can't run Foxit Reader on Wine 9.0 – mfc140u.dll error

Post by Extrejoind »

I'm trying to run Foxit Reader (latest Windows version) on Wine 9.0, using Ubuntu 22.04. The installation completes fine, but when I try to launch the app, it immediately crashes.

The terminal shows:

Code: Select all

err:module:import_dll Library mfc140u.dll not found
err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Importing dlls failed, status c0000135
So far I've tried:

Installing vcrun2015 and mfc140 using winetricks

Creating a clean wineprefix

Switching Windows version to 10 in winecfg

Still, same error. I just want to open PDFs with Foxit because it's fast and familiar. Has anyone had success running it under Wine 9.0?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
