Thank you very much for your application that greatly facilitates the understanding of Windows installations with your very practical graphic interface.
BUT… I’m not good enough!
I have an official offline version of MS Office 2016 at home (carton box with the product key). The file format is a .img containing the following tree structure:
In office folder, there are many contents (folders & files).
So, how can I install Office 2016 offline with this file type please?
So this means it’s USB image. You can either research if it is possible to mount .img file like .iso files or wait for Bottles to add a way to mount .iso images (and see if it works with .img) and then try it.
Here’s the issue on github that talks about it:
Sorry for not helping more, but I myself also wait for this feature since I don’t want to waste time learning how to mount image files.
Alternatively you can try extracting the files from .img to a folder inside your Bottle and then run setup.exe but I doubt it would work
So it seems Office is installed but I don’t know which exe shall I pick up : I have selected /home/user/.var/app/com.usebottles.bottles/data/bottles/bottles/MS-Office/drive_c/Program Files/Microsoft Office 15/ClientX64/IntegratedOffice.exe
I have tried also /home/user/.var/app/com.usebottles.bottles/data/bottles/bottles/MS-Office/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Office/Updates/Download/PackageFiles/XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX/root/Office16/EXCEL.EXE without success.
@francescomasala do you remember the path to launch tour programs ?
I used "/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Office/Updates/Download/PackageFiles/XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX/root/Office16/EXCEL.EXE" and it went smoothly
Hello, really strange, this is exactly what I did… and I still struggle to make it work.
Version is : Win64 Application with caffe-7.7 and I have chosen Application as the environment.
How can I display the Wine version please ?
Thank you

Hi everyone,
Same situation as oliver.storch for me. Couldn’t manage to install office 2016 home student. I tried to execute OfficeSetup.exe in my bottle. But it terminate with a message saying I have a network problem or a disk space problem… @francescomasala can you tell us how did you procede ?
