Everytime i try to launch H&D Deluxe with PlayOnLinux, it crashes and says: 

[08/07/14 18:02:35] - Running wine- hde.exe (Working directory : /home/leo/.PlayOnLinux/shortcuts)

wine: cannot find L"C:\\windows\\system32\\hde.exe"

That means the program is not installed (\windows\system32\ is just what happens to be the default path)

So is there a way to fix this? Because in the installer it said to NOT change the directory, or the game won´t work.

That's not a matter of path, never has been.

It's just that the installation failed. Read

wine: cannot find L"C:\\windows\\system32\\hde.exe"

as "cannot find hde.exe anywhere".

Well, I´ve already reinstalled it about five times, and it appears with the same Error everytime. So is there some way to fix it?

So far you gave no information to investigate the issue; But the fact that the install script hasn't been updated in 5 years and looks extremely outdated is probably part of the problem.

Since the script does not support the new integrated debugger, all what should be available is the virtual drive debug log, but that would be a start:

Tools > PlayOnLinux debugger > Virtual Drives > HandD > "Locate this log file" button

Then open the log file with your favorite editor and paste its content, here or in some pastebin-like service.

I suspect it'll lack lots of important informations though, not runing Wine thru POL_Wine wrapper and stuff... :/

This is the content, hope it helps.

As suspected, there's very little logging about the installation itself. The installation script should probably be updated...
 

So is there any way it can be solved?

Sure, the source of the install script is available from http://www.playonmac.com/en/app-247-Hidden_and_Dangerous_Deluxe.html, and thanks to the new repository interface anybody can contribute updates
