Installation fails

[D3rJust1n]

I tried to create a VM according to the libvirt instructions in repo
When I set the disk bus to virtio, mount my virtio iso and start the installation it says No drivers found at Select Driver when I select the ISO.

I have now manually set up a vm, activated remotedesktop and successfully connected to freerdp
but when I want to install winapps now I get the following error

I met the problem too, exactly experienced the same things with you, i solved it by deleting the winapps-src folder compeletly:

1. Try to use install.sh first to do a uninstallation.
2. Delete the ~/.local/bin/winapps-src folder, it's the cloned WinApps repository that includes the installation scripts.
3. Also try to remove the ~/.config/winapps folder, the recreate the `~/.config/winapps/winapps.conf' with the default configuration.

Also the default PORT_TIMEOUT of winapps.conf may be too short to find the RDP port, it works for me , and i can have further test. Sadly i meet this problem again and struggling to figure out why :(

# PORT CHECK
# - The maximum time (in seconds) to wait when checking if the RDP port on Windows is open.
# - Corresponding error: "NETWORK CONFIGURATION ERROR" (exit status 13).
# DEFAULT VALUE: '5'
PORT_TIMEOUT="10"

Oh i change the freerdp command to xfreerdp3 and success, even though i cant use xfreerdp3 to connect to vm, so weird ;-;

[D3rJust1n]

okay, i was able to establish a connection to the VM by setting PORT_TIMEOUT to a higher value and have now reached the last step of the installation. But there I could only select things like powershell and explorer, office programs as you could see in the installer gif were not available for me

Try to create a custom configuration file in ~/.local/bin/winapps-src/apps, similar to the existing ones in the folder, and run the install.sh script again. Then the script may find your Microsoft Office installation.
