Yes, that is what I attempted to do, but I am not sure what the appropriate command to install cabextract would be for my distro. Any suggestions would be much appreciated! This is what I tried:
($) cd Documents
($) sh winetrcks mfc42
Executing w_do_call mfc42
Executing load_mfc42
------------------------------------------------------
Cannot find cabextract. Please install it (e.g. 'sudo apt-get install cabextract' or 'sudo yum install cabextract').
------------------------------------------------------
($) sh winetricks cabextract
Unfortunately, I was met by the following:
Unknown arg cabextract
