Installation Problem MS Office 2013 using Wine

Question

I try to install MS office 2013 in Ubuntu 12.10 using Wine. But It says:

error: newer windows version needed.

How Can I fix this error.

Answer 1

Office 2013, won't be running on older operating systems like Windows XP and Vista, is only compatible with Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows Server 2008 R2 or Windows Server 2012.

Open a terminal, type winecfg, and then select windows 7 from the drop down at the bottom of the window. If that doesn't work I suggest to look at this post :

• Microsoft Office 2013 under wine.
