[RESOLVED]Win program won't install+NetFramework 3.5 needed

Hello, I 've trying to run this program "rt_7_lite_win7_Vista_x86_sp-2.6.0" under linux. It is imposible. I 've learn that "mon Runtime" is a or could be a substitute for .NETframework , which is needed for this program, the issue is that I cannot run it with Wine , it ask for a .NETframework version higher than 3.5, so I tired several commands to install it, I also learned that Winetreaks could help ( I didn't knwo how to mannage it), Playonlinux,gave the same error than Wine. Also tried to change wine settings, set compatible for "windows xp" the rt_7_lite_win7_Vista_x86_sp-2.6.0 or its version for x64 , didn't run.

I downloaded .Netframework from here [url]http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=0856eacb-4362-4b0d-8edd-aab15c5e04f5&displayLang=es
[/url]
then tried to install it with mono runtime, it didn't work. As I thought mono wasn't install so I did all of this: (maybe 3rd order is wrong I took it from a tutorial, I cannot find now where)

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys 3FA7E0328081BFF6A14DA29AA6A19B38D3D831EF

Code:
sudo apt install mono-devel

sudo apt update

echo "deb https://download.mono-project.com/repo/ubuntu stable-bionic main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-official-stable.list

sudo apt install mono-devel


Tried installing .NetFramework with mono (left click , run with...) It didn't work.

All in all, is it possible to run "rt_7_lite_win7_somehow?" :roll: :?:

Thank you for your reply!. I will took a better look with a clean head tomorrow, so far it seems quite complicated for me, but I would take another look. (they seem to be testing another program, aren't they?)

Hi pcfan5

it is not my intention to get you 'off road' in your attempts by why not using 'oracle virtual box'
even ms-dos is possible :)

cheers :)

Hi zorinantwerp, as pcfan5's rig only has 2 Gig of RAM that will be a non-starter as .net need Windows, not DOS 6.22 - unless you know different! ;) :D :P

Hi guys! I have 4 GB RAM , I have already tried running the program in a windows7 enviroment in Virtual Box (I did this before asking hahaha but the soft "7RT-7 litle" got "corrupted" and it didn't seemed to be compatible with W7, altough I run it in XP compatible choise, It crushed) , however I didn't know I was possible to run .NETframework alone. Thank you for the tip "Zorninawerp", ... I had just grab my mom's laptop (Windows) to try it there :/ , but now I will try with your suggestion. Thanks

Hi pcfan5

for me back to square one I am afraid. why do you wish to use this software?
"rt_7_lite_win7_Vista_x86_sp-2.6.0" is windows 7 configuration tool in 32bits with timestamp 3 Jan 2010 by Rockers Team. your computer is 32 or 64 bits? You should not use slipstreamed software :(

do I understand correctly that you wish a configuration based on Zorin 12.4 core (or ultimate) and running windows 7 in virtual mode? (wine or oracle)

if you use dual booting with several OS installed and NAS then I must leave it to Swarfendor437 to help you out

sorry pal :geek:

Hi!, I must apologize I mentioned that soft x86, when in fact I had both on my computer this and x64 , I copied the name wrongly, I wanted that to tried to get only one version of Windows7 , after all It didn-t work since the size result were the same. I got that soft to work under a Windows10 machine and it was full of publicity, so I gave it up after I discovered what I have mentioned.

I have a windows 7 running in Oracle Virtual Machine. All in all, I am sorry to say I don't need this software any longer, but I will appreciate your opinions just to learn.

Hi pcfan5,

Sorry for the delay but I wanted to see what this program does. Basically, I think it needs to live inside a Windows installation which you can then customise to make an .iso for future installs - say for example you don't want any games or Media Player but add apps that you want to be present from the get go - so 'Computer Says No'

Thank yo for your replay, I don't know how but I managed to install the game , as a matter of fact I did it through wine, following a guide for another game of the same brand.

I am absent of the forum because I am very bussy... but I will come back. Regards.

Just to add if you can get hold of Linux Magazine in your country the November issue has a whole article on running .NET CORE framework on GNU/Linux. ;) :D
