I have an uninstalled portable Windows .exe. When I type the absolute path, it doesn't work: > wine /home/ubuntu/appDir/myApp.exe but, if I cd to the application directory and execute it locally, it works: Code: cd /home/ubuntu/appDir/ wine myApp.exe I'm trying to include it in my Docky dock via a .desktop shortcut I've made in /usr/share/applications/. I don't mind the command line for under the hood stuff, but not for launching typical user apps.
