I have an app that's failing with
err:mscoree:load_mono Could not load Mono into this process

I am attempting to follow https://wiki.winehq.org/Mono which is not very clear.

wine-mono-4.6.3.msi is in /usr/share/wine/mono

I am using a non-default wine location

HKCU\Software\Wine\Dotnet does not exist in registry
