Wine 6.0 has just been released! Follow this tutorial to learn how to install Wine 6 on Debian 10.  Wine (<\/a>W<\/a><\/strong>ine <\/a>I<\/a><\/strong>s <\/a>N<\/a><\/strong>ot an <\/a>E<\/a><\/strong>mulator)<\/a> is a program which allows running Microsoft Windows programs (including DOS, Windows 3.x, Win32, and Win64 executables) on Unix. It consists of a program loader which loads and executes a Microsoft Windows binary, and a library (called Winelib) that implements Windows API calls using their Unix, X11 or Mac equivalents.
