Hello, can I get the easiest working instructions for installing Wine please.
I've tried;
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install wine

but I'm not sure what that does because when I try to run a windows executable, the system asks me what I want to use to open the file.

I had it installed before using some of the below but now I've tried it again and it just wont install.

dpkg --add-architecture i386
apt-get install software-properties-common
apt-add-repository 'https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/'
wget https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/Release.key && apt-key add Release.key
apt-get install apt-transport-https
Next add the repository to /etc/apt/sources.list or create a *.list under /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ with the following content:

deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/debian/ jessie main

apt-get update
apt-get install --install-recommends winehq-stable

apt update && apt install winehq-stable

Did you get any errors? You have to run wine-setup to build the directory tree, and to add Windows programs. After the Windows program is added to wine, you just run:Or maybe it's wine setup without the dash.

According to https://wiki.debian.org/Wine there are a couple of lines involved in installing wine, especially because of the need for multilib support on 64-bit machines.

Check your system's architecture well before you proceed:

Hello, I have amd64 and when I run wine myfile.exe I get an error: Bad EXE format for Z:\root\Downloaded\myfile.exe

When I run the : apt-get install --install-recommends winehq-stable after adding the repository, some of the jessie files say 404 error

EDIT: I'm going to start over. Which guide should I use?

https://wiki.winehq.org/Debian
https://wiki.debian.org/Wine

So the error I get trying the install is W: Fetch https://dl.wine... httpError404
