WINE opens exe file looking for removed PortableAppsPlatform.exe application

Post by 5taras »

I use Ubuntu 18.04.4 x64, winehq-stable 5.0.
I've messed with PortableAppsPlatform application and removed it. Now every time I click on any ".exe" application the note appears: "Could not find the PortableApp.com Platform main EXE: Z:\home\...\PortableAppsPlatform.exe". To fix the situation I've removed .wine and .wine32 folders but the note keeps to appear.
How can I fix and remove the annoying note?
Thanks.

Starting any ".exe" program in command line gives the desired result.

Why clicking any "exe" causes the note about missing "PortableApp.com Platform main Exe..." while using the command "wine ~\A.exe" works as usual?

You probably need to look for that in your desktop environment's file association settings.
