    Okay guys. I'm new to the whole linux space. I love it. Now I'm trying to install Wine both through the App center and through the terminal.

    When I download it through app center.. It's an older version but it downloads Okay with out any issues. When trying to execute a .exe file I don't see the option to open it with Wine. and when double click I get a box that says No application found for Itunes64setup.exe. So what Am I missing here.

    Also I tried to install it through the command line by entering

    sudo apt install wine-stable

    I get this message


    Building dependency tree
    Reading state information... Done
    wine-stable is already the newest version (3.0-1ubuntu1).
    The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
    libido3-0.1-0 libllvm6.0
    Use 'sudo apt autoremove' to remove them.
    0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.


    I try searching for Winecfg and get nothing as well. I really need to use a windows program.
