After installing per the installation instructions from Wine:

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 
wget -nc https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/winehq.key 
sudo apt-key add winehq.key
sudo apt-add-repository 'deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/ bionic main'
sudo apt update
sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-stable

Staring Wine fails:

wine start /unix %f

ShellExecuteEx failed: Invalid window handle.

This is the error code I get when I try to open Wine in Terminal. I first ran Wİne on Terminal and it said it couldn't find Mono and Gecko and said it can install it for me. I clicked ok and it installed Mono without any problem but with Gecko it got an error and couldn't install it. It was able to install it in the second try and I ran Wine again, but I got the error above. Did I do anything wrong? I should also mention, when I try to open it from /usr/share/applications nothing happens.

Use the installation instructions from Wine instead:

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 
wget -nc https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/winehq.key 
sudo apt-key add winehq.key
sudo apt-add-repository 'deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/ bionic main'
sudo apt update
sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-stable
