Hello,
I'm new to Wine and really still learning Linux in general. I need to be able to use a Microsoft app for work and I'm hoping that wine is the solution. It is called GiftRAP.client.application and I don't believe it is part of the Wine database. But, is it still possible it may work with Wine? So far no luck trying to opening the file with wine, I get an error message repeatedly in a pop up. I think it is a .NET file, but I'm not 100% sure on that. Any ideas for me? Please be very detailed in your response, as a lot of this is over my head. Thanks!
App not on Wine list, anyway to get it to work?

".application" files are .NET's ClickOnce deployment files.
Mono or native .NET would certainly be needed, but I don't think Mono supports ClickOnce, and native .NET likely needs other Windows components Wine doesn't implement.
You could try download the application directory, and run it locally, bypassing ClickOnce installation. This worked for several applications I did it for.
I am not sure what the alternatives are.
