    Hasn’t Office worked under Wine since forever?

    (And if not, what are the show stoppers?)

      Newest versions don’t work very well. The only over that worked consistently got me read 2010.

      I think part of the issue is that it’s quite integrated with the system and that makes it harder. Crossover lists 2013 as working, but 2021 as not even installing

        2010 is out of support

        Also if you are talking about a business they are never going to use Wine. A Windows VM maybe but not wine.

          Being OOS doesn’t change that they read the last one that worked consistently for me. I’m not recommending to use it, just stating my experience.

          Not sure were the business comment comes from.
