When you create your link you need to make sure the working directory of that link is set to where the .exe is. Most windows programs care about it while linux ones don't (that's why it doesn't get set usually) Otherwise you can just write a small shell script setting the correct working directory (cd ~/.wine/...) and calling wine. Then you can just make a link to that script to make it all work easily. (this also let you do more things like redirecting logs to file, ... if the need arise) 2012/5/28 Guan <wineforum-user@xxxxxxxxxx>: > Has anybody had any luck making a working desktop shortcut for Rosetta Stone 3.4.5? I can get the program to run smoothly, but whenever I try to create a desktop application launcher, no matter how I set it up, it always flat out doesn't work, or it throws some sort of fatal error inside of Rosetta Stone. > > I've tried setting it to the wine prefix, then a command path. I've tried crating a link in the .wine folder and then moving that link to the desktop. No matter what I try, I can't seem to get it working. This is not a new problem, but I wonder if anyone has any new solutions to it. > > > > >
