A fork of winetricks that adds setup wizards (verb files) for popular Chinese Windows applications like QQ, WeChat, TIM, and NetEase Cloud Music to run under Wine on Linux. It provides a terminal command and desktop launcher for installing these apps across distributions.

Use cases

  • install QQ or WeChat on Linux via Wine
  • run Chinese Windows applications on a Linux distribution
  • set up TIM or AliWangWang under Wine
  • install NetEase Cloud Music or Kugou on Linux
  • use winetricks with support for Chinese apps
  • run Windows apps on Linux with a setup wizard

When to choose

  • you need to install Chinese Windows apps (QQ, WeChat, TIM, etc.) under Wine on Linux
  • official winetricks lacks verbs for the Chinese applications you want
  • you want a simple wizard-driven installer across Linux distributions

When to avoid

  • you need native Linux versions of apps that already have them (QQ, QQ Music)
  • you don't use Wine or don't run Windows applications on Linux
  • you need reliable video calls, screenshots, or password saving in QQ/TIM under Wine
