I have installed the MS-word using Playonlinux on Ubuntu (20.04) and I am looking for some help to install the plugins viz. Grammarly, Mendeley, etc. I tried to manually install "Grammarly" but failed.
I understand there are certain prerequisites for any such installations. Is there a way to find those prerequisites?
There are also similar unresolved request e.g. this and this
EDIT1:
As suggested by NOrbert I tried installing the grammerly as a component. Earlier I was trying only step I and III only (see following). Due to error obtained I found step II is required. Now I will be installing in following steps.
Step I: Change the OS type
- Open PlayOnLinux and Select Configure and go to "Wine" tab.
- Find and open "Configure wine" which open a new dialouge box.
- Select Application tab and there is an option to change Windows version. It may require a restart/reboot of virtual drive.
Step II: Installed the prerequisite (if any, e.g .net Framework for grammerly)
- Open PlayOnLinux and select Configure and go to "Install component" tab.
- Select and installed the desired component (e.g. .Net Framework ).
Step III: Install Grammerly (thanks to NOrbert for suggestion)
- Open PlayOnLinux and select "Install a program"
- Select "Install a Non listed program"
- Select "Edit/update an existing program"
- Choose program (e.g. MS word in this case)
- Leave unchecked as already installed the component in previous step.
- 32 bit installation
- Browse the location and click next for installation.
The problem right now is in step II. I do not know which version of .Net is required. Also I tried installing its "dotnet30" (hit and trial basis) but it failed.
