Hi,
Working on this today, I removed ~/.wine and start again to run wine on same .exe and did not get any more those messages and got the right .desktop file in place. But now there are some other messages: wine: created the configuration directory '/home/patrice/.wine' 0012:err:ole:StdMarshalImpl_MarshalInterface Failed to create ifstub, hres=0x80004002 0012:err:ole:CoMarshalInterface Failed to marshal the interface {6d5140c1-7436- 11ce-8034-00aa006009fa}, 80004002 0012:err:ole:get_local_server_stream Failed: 80004002 0014:err:ole:StdMarshalImpl_MarshalInterface Failed to create ifstub, hres=0x80004002 0014:err:ole:CoMarshalInterface Failed to marshal the interface {6d5140c1-7436- 11ce-8034-00aa006009fa}, 80004002 0014:err:ole:get_local_server_stream Failed: 80004002 Could not find Wine Gecko. HTML rendering will be disabled. Could not find Wine Gecko. HTML rendering will be disabled. wine: configuration in L"/home/patrice/.wine" has been updated. get_CurrentProfileTypes failed: 0x80004001 get_CurrentProfileTypes failed: 0x80004001 Probably some package updates changed the situation. So sorry for the noise, I will close this issue. Thanks, Patrice
