Wine is used for installing EXE files. Then why am I getting the following error?

$ cd /home/user/Hardware
$ wine LED Player.exe

  • What are you trying to install? – Maythux May 06 '15 at 10:30
  • Its QL LED Player.exe – Vivek Pal May 06 '15 at 11:09

    I recommend expanding this question to explain where you obtained the software and precisely what steps you have attempted so far to install it--especially the steps that produced that error message. (You can [edit] your post to give this information.) – Eliah Kagan May 06 '15 at 11:53
  • @vivekpal mv "QL LED Player.exe" QLLEDPlayer.exe – kagali-san May 06 '15 at 16:12
  • @vivekpal the command would be wine "~/Downloads/QL LED Player.exe" for example – kagali-san May 06 '15 at 16:12
  • Lets also reanalyze what Wine is. Wine is an emulation layer. It does not work with all Windows programs, nor is it a drop in replacement for Windows, nor can we easily assist you without detailed information. Also, use quotes around program names/paths that have spaces in them. – Thomas Ward May 06 '15 at 19:08

I agree with @AUmarMukthar, but your problem is a different one: You have a space in the name of your EXE, so you have to enclose it in quotes.

This is the reason for the following error message:

wine: cannot find L"C:\\windows\\system32\\LED.exe"

    @vivek pal Have a look at this. How to write the path of a folder with space in its name? http://askubuntu.com/questions/530578/how-to-write-the-path-of-a-folder-with-space-in-its-name – A Umar Mukthar May 06 '15 at 13:54

Not every piece of windows software is supported by wine. To know the list of software supported by wine follow this link and check the software you wish to install.
