Bug ID: 45652 Summary: No entries in Menu System Product: Wine Version: 3.10 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: electron@fearnleys.org.uk Distribution: ---
Following a suggestion on this site I have just updated from V1.8 to V3.10 using this page:
https://www.tecmint.com/install-wine-on-ubuntu-and-linux-mint/
Wine has installed OK (can run 'wine --version') but there are no entries in the Menu. There were Menu entries when I installed V1.8 using Mint's Software Manager.
Is there any way to resolve this? I have searched on-line but nothing found seems to apply to Mint.
Many thanks.

This is the Menu in Mint showing Wine correctly on my desktop. My laptop noting shows even though I installed both in the same way.

--- Comment #3 from Rosanne DiMesio dimesio@earthlink.net --- Plain Wine does not create any menu entries for its builtin programs, and neither do the WineHQ packages; the ones you had previously were added by your distro to their packages.
You are free to create menu items for the builtin programs yourself using whatever tools your distro provides.
This is all explained on https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu
