To troubleshoot the issue, you can try the following steps:

  1. Make sure you have Wine installed correctly on your Ubuntu system. You can do this by running wine --version and ensuring that it returns the installed version information.

  2. Verify that Winetricks is installed properly. You can reinstall it by running sudo apt install winetricks.

  3. Try launching Winetricks with additional debugging output by running WINEDEBUG=+all winetricks or WINEDEBUG=-all,+relay,+seh winetricks. This will provide more detailed information about what might be going wrong.

  4. If the above steps don't resolve the issue, consider creating a new, clean 32-bit WINEPREFIX and testing Winetricks there. You can do this by running WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine32 winecfg to create a new 32-bit prefix. Then, run WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine32 winetricks to launch Winetricks in the 32-bit prefix.

If the problem persists, it may be helpful to provide additional information, such as any error messages or logs generated when attempting to launch Winetricks.

I have the same problem with Xubuntu 23.04 but at least it's working when installing wine-development.

So this should work:

sudo apt purge wine
sudo apt autoremove
sudo apt install wine-development
winetricks

If it does not work try to delete ~/.wine or reinstall winetricks.

I sit in a Tesla and translated this thread with Ai:

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
