Can you take me through how that is done?

Thanks

Run the installer with WINE.

Here is the results of my attempt. I know Ubuntu does not allow me to log in as root even though I am the owner administer.

Code:

siawacsh@siawacsh-sager:/media/Windows/Documents and Settings/siawacsh/Downloads/manifestation_program/Manifestation_Basic$ sudo wine setup.exe
[sudo] password for siawacsh: 
wine: /home/siawacsh/.wine is not owned by you
siawacsh@siawacsh-sager:/media/Windows/Documents and Settings/siawacsh/Downloads/manifestation_program/Manifestation_Basic$ cd

You should not run Wine as root, it is not needed and not recommended. Try it without sudo.

2 possibles :-

/media/Windows/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)

/media/Windows/Program?Files?\(x86\)

(special characters need to be escaped)
