Hi, this is a problem you probably get all the time, but the file that PlayOnMac created for running my exe won't open. It looks like a regular app, but clicking on it immediately closes it, and the PlayOnMac launcher won't respond to clicking "run".

For starters, the exe was made by an installer exe, and PlayOnMac was able to successfully run and install it. It created a folder with the actual game inside and all of it's resources, like sprites and stuff. Clicking on the game just did not work. I'm on 11.6 Big Sur, and I understand how hard Apple made backwards compatibility. Is there a way to make the exe file into an app that my computer can open?
