Additional Comments

1. Download installation file (.msi not .exe) with: "wget https://dl.google.com/adwords_editor/12.X.X.0/google_adwords_editor.msi" (replace the X with the version you need).

Note: The third X always starts with "1", so for Adwords Editor version 12.3 it should be: "12.3.1.0 and not "12.3.0.0".

2. Install the .msi file with: "wine msiexec /i google_adwords_editor.msi"

3. Install corefonts if you haven't already done so, otherwise you can't read the Terms and Conditions and the application will crash. You can use Winetricks for this: "winetricks corefonts"

4. Make sure your Windows version is set to Windows 7 in winecfg. You can open winecfg with "winecfg".
