You have to set work directory in your shortcut.

Lots of windows programs rely on current directory (aka work directory) being the same as the directory with the executable. If you using KDE set it via shortcut properties. If you using Gnome, you'll have to edit shortcut manually and add this line:

Code:
Path=/home/user/.wine/dosdevices/c:/folder name
