Is there any way to do this? Or is it somehow necessary for playonlinux to install its own copy of wine?

Use the "system" version

How? If I go into "manage wine versions", I don't see it there.

Thanks.

You can see it only for 32-bits wineprefix

I don't know for sure what that means, but I'm running a 32 bit version of Wine on a 32 bit OS.

You won't see it into "Manage wine version", because "System" is not a wine version you can download from the website.

You can find it in settings menu.

But what do you want to do?

OK, I think I see what you mean. For an installed module, you can then select the system version of wne under configuration.

I'm trying to install Ableton, to work with the system wine. Right now I'm just testing, because I don't actually own a copy of Ableton yet.

Looks like it downloads an earlier version of wine, and I can change it afterward in settings to system am I right?

Is there any way to set the system version to the default?

Thanks.

Sorry, we won't help with that

Yep

Nope, and there is no point for that AFAIK. Apps are tested with specific wine versions and we download old wine versions on purpose to be sure that there will be no regression.

Thanks.
