MSI file

Trying to install an app that requires MSXML 6, which is delivered as an MSI file. How do I run an MSI file? Thanks.

Hi,

An installation target for msxml6 is built into crossover 9 -- it's
available in the 'runtime support components' section of the crossover
GUI.

CHhers!

I believe it's also the case that the crossover installer will gracefully accept and launch .msi files using the same process as with .exe files.

Hi, I am new to Crossover Linux (still testing trial version of 9.0.1 Standard). I have also encountered a problem installing from a .msi file. It is an unsupported program which I have tried to install in a new Windows XP bottle by selecting "Choose Installer File..." but when I navigate to the folder containing the .msi file it cannot be selected. Other .exe files in that folder are selectable. Is there a different method for installing .msi files, or am I missing something obvious?

Thanks,

Tom
