Need help clearing this "rundll32.exe" wine error.

GamingGourd · 11-19-2023, 09:29 PM

I've had this issue for a while where whenever I run anything with wine it provides me with the following error:

Code:

rundll32.exe - .NET Framework Initialization Error
Unable to find a version of the runtime to run this application.

It doesn't prevent me from running most applications but it does appear very often and is starting to annoy me, because sometimes when I'm trying to troubleshoot this pops up often followed by the program just failing to work.

When trying to find out which version of wine I'm using I get this back:

Code:

-NameOfUser/Pc-:~/Desktop$ wine -v
002c:err:wineboot:process_run_key Error running cmd L"C:\\windows\\system32\\winemenubuilder.exe -a -r" (126).

Wine has been somewhat of a difficult concept for me to grasp since I started using Linux and I'm hoping to get a little help with cleaning this up so it works better. I appreciate any useful help I can get. Thanks in advanced.

If you have wine installed then look at:

Code:

man wine

Or an online man page.
https://manpages.org/wine
https://linux.die.net/man/1/wine

https://www.winehq.org/help
https://www.dlldump.com/
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine

Start with checking if wine is installed correctly.

Code:

wine --version

Sorry for the late reply; Holidays. I appreciate the links. However, at the risk of sounding rude, I get very strong "tl;dr" vibes from your post. The large part in code is when I did type "wine --version" and the whole point of posting here was to get constructive solutions to figuring out why wine is selectively not working and why I keep getting runtime errors and how to clear those errors. So I would appreciate it if your answer could be a bit more helpful in regards to what I posted. Thank you.

In all dangers, temptations and afflictions with wine, remember the 'bittiness' issue. Windows is 64 and/or 32 bit. 32bit programs run on a 64bit system, but not the other way round. And 32bit programs need 32bit libs, ditto 64bit programs and there's no compromise there.

If you have a 64bit wine and a 32bit windows program, proceed with care. 'File' is your friend.
