My Linux MInt PC has downloaded and installed several updates to WINE since the start of 2022. The most recent is v.7.5

To update the version of WINE recognised by Playonlinux, it says to go to Tools > Manage Wine Versions >  Wine Versions Manager

This then displays a list of available Wine versions, the most recent of which (the one installed) is v.3.20.

What is the most recent version currently recognised by Playonlinux, and how do I install it.

(Using v.3.20, most of the WIndows programs I try to install on Mint crash)

Many thanks

Thanks Dadu042, but I've already tried the solution you suggest and it doesn't permit me to select a version of Wine later that 3.20. I am now up to Wine v.7.5 on my MInt PC.

If I uninstall Playonlinux then download and install a fresh copy will it have a more up-to-date list of Wine versions?  I'm reluctant to do this as it will remove the installed programs that already work and I'd have to start again from the beginning.

I think that your Playonlinux version is too old.

You must be right.

I'll download a fresh version.
