How to install wine in kali linux full guide

i was trying to install wine in my kali but i was failing again and again
as kali is based on the debian version of linux , and also people rarely luse
kali linux as their first operating system.

Here is how i did it

>>first you need to add the proper architecture i386 into your system
for that use the following code sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386


>>the next thing you need to get is the key
wget -nc https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/winehq.key


>> now time for some heavy lifting
you need to add the the source into the source.list

emacs /etc/apt/sources.list
>>just copy the link and paste it in the source.list

https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/debian/ stretch main

>>now as you have added the link to your source.list
you need to update it now by apt-get update

>>installing the stable version of wine sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-stable this will install the stable version of the wine
this will take soem time to download

>>To easily install some well know application you need to install winetricks to install winetricks run the following command apt-get install winetricks

>>after the installation of all these things if you want to install any .exe file the follow the following command
i am considering the file is in the Downloads

  • cd /root/Downloads
  • wine example.exe

>> To run the exe file or your software
you need to navigate to the folder where the application is available
normally the application path is
/root/.wine/drive_c/users/Public/Desktop

for the ease of use you can edit the alias, so we will use emacs, nautilus and .bashrc
emacs ~/.bashrc

you need to copy and paste it in the .bashrc file
alias windesk = 'nautilus /root/.wine/drive_c/users/Public/Desktop'


now you can just type windesk in the terminal and enjoy

  • here is how the source.listlooks like

    deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main non-free contrib deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali kali kali-rolling main non-free contrib deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/debian/ stretch main
  • here is how the .bashrc looks like
