Either install a graphical manager for Wine (like e.g. q4wine) or run it from the terminal wine ./your.exe or wine64 ./your.exedepending on which one you want.

Now got this from terminal :
$ wine64 ./PathOfExileInstaller.exe /usr/bin/wine: could not open Application could not be started, or no application associated with the specified file. ShellExecuteEx failed: Internal error.

bloom Hmm, I think you'll have to install the wine-32bit package

bloom

Now got this :

Staudey zumaha@zumaha ~/Downloads $ wine64 ./PathOfExileInstaller.exe
wine: could not load kernel32.dll, status c0000135
zumaha@zumaha ~/Downloads $ wine ./PathOfExileInstaller.exe
wine: could not load kernel32.dll, status c0000135

bloom Hmm, weird. Maybe try a wineboot --init first. In any case, it would probably be easier to install it through either Steam or Lutris.

I deleted the standard prefix (~/.wine).
And now Wine is working.
Thanks to Staudey. 🙂

I suggest you to create multiple prefixes for specific applications, and a generic one for testing.
example:

env WINEPREFIX='/home/username/wineprefixes/pathofexile' wine xx.exe

You can add WINEARCH=win32 for a 32-bit only prefix.

As you install multiple windows applications in default wineprefix, things can get messy.

Hmm to install games it's better to use lutris

Because Wine is so powerful it requires a lot of tweaks. Lutris handles this for you.
