e-Sword search

Recently downloaded the e-Sword program and am using the CrossOver as directed. No issues with installing the Bibles or books. But when I attempt to do a search I get no results, even with a singular like faith. Any ideas on how to fix this issue.


This issue has been forwarded to the Official CodeWeavers Ticket System. If you have observed this issue and would like to report it as well, please open a support ticket or send an email to info@codeweavers.com with a description of what you are seeing and a link to this post.

Thank you!

The problem, here, is that we removed a component that we thought was no longer necessary for e-Sword installs, but actually turns out to be critical for searches.

Brand new installs of e-Sword from the "crosstie" file won't have this problem, anymore. To fix existing copies, install "Windows Script 5.7" into the e-Sword bottle. You'll find this package in the "community supported applications" section of Crossover's install software menu.
