tungit you really do love the list of never going to work applications.

IDM likes hooking into windows firewall and other low level parts todo things. Wine cannot expose these parts to applications since Linux kernel does not hand control of those parts over to user programs.

tungit I work from not exactly a list of applications names. List of features wine cannot do and most likely never do any time soon if ever.

Wine does not do direct hardware control.
Wine does not allow direct network modification and injection(all windows vpn clients killed, all windows firewalling software killed, and all network snooping software killed"IDM" network snooping).
Unsupported to Unsupportable forms of copy-protection(like the ndectect thing it also in the camp of direct hardware control).
