How should I respond to these? Is there a way to get this stuff straight out of my Windows installation (dual booted)? Are there mirrors that I can point winetricks to in order to get these files?

Here's how you install it manually when you get a 404 error:




  1. Google for the package name, here WindowsXP-KB975337-x86-ENU.exe

  2. Download it.

  3. From the terminal, simply run wine ~/Downloads/WindowsXP-KB975337-x86-ENU.exe (or similar) to install in your default Wine prefix.




    • You may have to click on EULAs, press one or two Next buttons, etc.; winetricks usually performs the quiet install.





Note: you can also try updating winetricks to the latest bleeding-edge version from their github (winetricks is a script)
