Helloo, I just switched to Linux and have no idea how to make Wine run the file, could you help me? No worries if not.

hi there! which distro are you using. it actually doesnt matter. just download the wine package with your package manager.

For Ubuntu/Debian = sudo apt install wine

For Fedora = sudo dnf install wine

For Arch = sudo pacman -S wine

Once it’s installed, you can run a Windows executable like this: wine yourfile.exe

If it doesn’t work, try running winecfg first — it’ll set up Wine’s environment.

Let me know what error you get if it still won’t run 👍

sometimes wine doesnt show up when opening .exe files. be sure everything's up to date and have a wonderful day :D
