Setting up the multitool on a Linux system can be tricky. This tutorial utilizes Bottles to handle the intricacies of pure Wine. Follow these steps (tested on Ubuntu 22.04 with v0.12.19 and v0.13.0):
- Place the Multitool .exe somewhere in your home directory (I made a multitool folder for this)
- Install flatpak:
sudo apt install flatpak
- Add the flathub repo:
flatpak remote-add flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
- Install Bottles:
flatpak install flathub com.usebottles.bottles
- Install and configure Flatseal:
flatpak install flathub com.github.tchx84.Flatseal
- If you don't see Bottles and Flatseal in your application list, restart your computer or re-login.
- Open Flatseal
- Click on the Bottles entry
- Scroll to Filesystem and toggle on "All user files" (alternatively, "Other Files" and manually enter a directory)
- Open Bottles and navigate to the Bottles tab (at the top)
- Create a new bottle (any name will do)
- Open the new bottle
- Add a Shortcut
- Navigate to the exe directory
- Change the filter in the lower right corner from "Supported Executables" to "All Files"
- Click the Multitool exe and the orange "Add" button
- Open the Settings and scroll to "Compatibility"
- Change the Working Directory to wherever you placed the .exe
- Run the new shortcut (little play button)
- Install .NET in the bottle you made
- A pop up should tell you that you need .NET installed and ask if you want to install it; say yes and download the installer
- Click "Run Executable"
- Navigate to where you saved the .NET installer
- Change the filter in the lower right corner from "Supported Executables" to "All Files"
- Select and run the .NET installer
- Once installed, click the multitool shortcut run button again
- Configure and use as normal!
- Opening files directly from the Multitool does not work unless Virtual Desktop is enabled in the Bottles Settings
- Manual navigation my be necessary for your use case
- Fonts and icons may be missing or janky
- Attempting to view the Changelog will cause a CTD
- Changing the compression level will save it, but it may cause the application to freeze
v0.12.19:
