How do I create a launcher for portable .exe app in Wine?

Post by martin115 »

Hi, I have Wine 10 installed on Debian 12 Bookworm. I am using an app called ArchivePlayer.exe that allows me to view .RAW video files from a surveillance cam. It works well under Wine, however, I have to first open the app, and then navigate thru the file system to get to the RAW file I want to open. Could somebody show me how to create a launcher so that I can just select to open the RAW file type with ArchivePlayer.exe? The ArchivePlayer.exe has no installer, it just works on windows. Thank you very much for your help.
