Wine applications can't connect to the internet
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
I'm trying to use MS Office 2010 through Wine on Ubuntu 18.04 (can't use any other office suites since I need to get formatting perfect). I somehow managed to install Office 2013, but it failed to log me in and remained 'not activated'. So I tried to use Office 2010. It does work, but whenever I try to open files from my Google Drive (thanks to Nautilus), it simply opens an empty doc (while LibreOffice opens the file smoothly). When I try to download Drive for Office (in case this could be an issue with Office 2010), it says its unable to connect to the internet. Now I'm pretty sure its an issue with Wine and not Office. What do I need to do to get this stuff up and running?
PS: I tried to install Office 2010 via PlayOnLinux, but Wine seemed to crash every time, so I simply opened the installer from Nautilus and somehow it managed to install the program (in case that helps).
