Wine cannot find .exe even though I'm in the directory

I'm in my Wine directory with the .exe before my eyes.

However, when I "wine [exe name]", I get this message:

wine: cannot find L"C:\\windows\\system32\\[exe name]

I know the program works because I launched it shortly after installing it via wine. I take it wine believes the .exe file is in a different folder and stubbornly keeps trying to launch it from that imaginary folder.

Can anyone provide any fixes?

Thanks in advance!

Have you tried launching with full path instead of from within the directory where the .exe is? Something like:

Code:

---

wine /home/castiglione/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/MyGameFolder/mygame.exe

---

Or use "wine ./filename.exe". By default, Linux does not search the current directory, only the path, so you have to specify the current directory with "./".
