Internet access via WINE

[banjoman]

I have installed Memory-Map viewer via WINE on my Sony Vaio laptop (running Mint 18.3), however I cannot sign into my Memory-Map account or activate my purchased maps as I cannot access the internet from this program. The tech support team at Memory-Map do not support their software running under Linux, but say it could be the security software/system or firewall.

What can I do to get access to the internet via this program running under Wine? Thanks......

I have installed Memory-Map viewer via WINE ... I cannot access the internet from this program.

Can you access the internet with any other wine program?

Here's the wine "app database" for Memory Map:

Yes, I can access the internet using wine internet explorer... I don't use WINE much, mostly native Linux software. This is one of the very few Wndows programs I want to run!!

I have looked up Wine app database with your link. Workarounds for Memory-map V6.14 are not explained sufficiently for me to put them into operation.

What works

General mapping properties, GPS import/export, map overlay features, 3D display

What does not

Installation requires workarounds

Workarounds

Requires library overrides:

api-ms-win-crt-multibyte-|1-1-0
api-ms-win-crt-runtime-|1-1-0
api-ms-win-crt-stdio-|1-1-0
ucrtbase
vcruntime140

But it does have a gold rating and licence management is reported to work under WINE.

That's in Debian 9, which you aren't using. Tried the Wine forums?

Hmmm.... of course not all Linuxes are the same!! I'll try the Wine forum......
