Hello all,

Im running into a strange error, just wondering if someone can shed some light. I'm fairly new to Linux and very new to PlayOnLinux scripting (just started a few hours ago), so please keep that in mind.

I'm trying to write an install script for a game and having some issues with an add on utility. If i install the main app via script and then install the addon via Misc > run an exe, it open fine and i can start the install. However if I try to run it via POL_WINE it crashes with the following error before the install screen loads:

01/24/20 15:05:55 - [POL_Wine] Message: Running wine-4.20 /home/testuser/Downloads/Decal.msi (Working directory : /home/testuser/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/AC/drive_c/Games/AC)
0009:err:module:__wine_process_init failed to load L"Z:\\home\\testuser\\Downloads\\Decal.msi", error c000012f

Maybe worth noting that this happens if i use a seperate script or one large script.

edit: maybe worth mentioning. I used wine 4.20 because it was the version that worked best when i did this install manually sometime ago. Just trying to automate the process now and share the install script.

Any input or direction would be most apriciated
