MS Money 2000

I am new to linux and was wondering if i can run ms money 2000 on it?
Any help or advice appreciated.
Thanks Steve

Hi stevesnowski, and welcome to the forum :slight_smile:

Money 2000 (as with ALL Windows applications) will NOT run in Linux natively … though some Windows apps can be made to run (with differing levels of success/functionality) in WINE (a windows application layer).

WineHQ, reports Money 2000 as “Gold”, but there are issues … see here:

There are however Linux alternatives (most of which will be free) … though you’d probably run into issues getting your data out of Money 2000 and into an alternative … I’d suspect Money uses a proprietary file format.

Your other option would be to run a copy of Windows in a virtual machine inside Linux, and install Money onto that.

Or set up a dual-boot system … where you decide which OS to boot when you turn on your PC

HTH

If you have any further questions, feel free to ask :slight_smile:

Many Thanks for the info will prob do dual boot option
