I'm trying to install TodoList app as from terminal and by using GUI. http://abstractspoon.com/wiki/doku.php?id=linux

It throws an error:

Note: command wine /home/pdd/.cache/winetricks/comctl32/cc32inst.exe /T:C:windowsTemp_comctl32 /c returned status 193. Aborting.

  • This is not a solution to your specific problem, but there are all sorts of ToDo applications meant for Linux. If you don't get a resolution, those may be of interest to you. – KGIII Aug 17 '20 at 15:45
  • I wonder if you have the latest winetricks? This can be seen by running winetricks --version and the latest version is '20200412-next'. If you have older version have a look here: https://askubuntu.com/q/755059/57576 – andrew.46 Aug 18 '20 at 01:13
  • @andrew.46 thank you! How I can mark your answer as best? – PDD Aug 24 '20 at 18:54
  • @KGIII I will try – PDD Aug 24 '20 at 18:54
  • @PDD This solved the issue? I have not given an answer as such but if the issue is solved for you I can write one up :) – andrew.46 Aug 24 '20 at 23:51
  • @andrew.46 yes. Please write your answer -- I will choose it – PDD Aug 25 '20 at 11:37

In many cases of error messages with winetricks an update to the very latest version of winetricks will fix the issue; the repository winetricks is almost always at least slightly aged!

To test this I followed this excellent question and answer on Ask Ubuntu to update to the very latest winetricks:

How do I get the latest version of winetricks on Ubuntu?

Note that at the time of writing this answer this should give you the following version:

andrew@ithaca:~$ winetricks --version
20200412-next - sha256sum: 9ce444892e885bf7318b1f6c251dafb7a43fc26bb3078215f630e8a2b3f15874

Now the following command should be successful in installing the prerequisites and required dlls for TodoList, and certainly it worked well on my Ubuntu Focal Fossa 20.04 system:

winetricks --verbose comctl32 mfc42 vcrun6

And hopefully on yours as well :)
