What works
Menu, authorization process, downloading files, viewing files
What does not
Installation out of the box, but has workaround
Workarounds
Install in a wine 32 prefix. Install the 4.5.0 version, since version 4.5.9 will not install giving an error "Adobe Digital Editions is already running". You laso need to install additional packages using winetricks and run a command to solve graphics glitch issue
1. Create clean wine32 prefix
WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.wine32" WINEARCH=win32 wine wineboot
2. Install packages required for the installation
WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.wine32" winetricks corefonts dotnet40
3. Download Adobe Digital Editions version 4.5.0 from https://filehippo.com/download...
4. Install it
WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.wine32" WINEARCH=win32 wine ADE_4.5_Installer.exe
5. Fix graphics glitches
WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.wine32" winetricks ddr=gdi
