PlayOnLinux is a piece of software which allows you to easily install and use numerous apps and games designed to run with Microsoft Windows. PlayOnLinux mainly relies on WineHQ project. Few apps and games are compatible with GNU/Linux at the moment and it certainly is a factor preventing the migration to this system. PlayOnLinux brings a cost-free, accessible and efficient solution to this problem.

Fixes in this version:

• Packages page ehanced. Little by little, you will see the real names of the packages, accompanied with icons instead of codenames
• Possibility to overwrite existing installs without causing bugs.
• Enhancement in localisations
• Virtual desktop are now compatible with wine 1.5.16+
