Two problems here:

One:  PlayOnLinux problems have to be reported to POL.  If they find a
problem in the Wine code, they report it to us using Wine's bug
tracking system.
Two:  This is actually more important, you are NOT starting the
program correctly.  Windows, when it starts a program, switches to the
program's directory and runs it from there.  Thus the command above
becomes:

cd '/media/READYBOOST/Fallen Earth'
wine FEUpdater.exe

If you are trying to run the updater from Portable Media to update an
install in Wine usually will NOT work either.
