Created attachment 63711

Partial Terminal commands and results.

Installed Wine from Ubuntu Software and downloaded Studio 2.0 to the Wine
installer within the last 24 hours.
I Checked the put a shortcut on the desktop box.
a .lnk was placed on the desktop with the following command line in it.

env WINEPREFIX="/home/luigiwriter/.wine" wine C:\\windows\\command\\start.exe
/Unix /home/luigiwriter/.wine/dosdevices/c:/users/Public/Desktop/Studio\
2.0.lnk

Note the call is for Studio\ 2.0.lnk 
Not for Studio.exe

Kept getting the following when clicking on the .lnk.
Error window: Path not found
Error window: File not found

and finally
Error window: there is no program installed to process this file. [or words to
that effect.]

After following the FAQ, Wiki and several community posts instructions tried
loading a [.io] file. and got 

Error window: there is no program installed to process this file. [or words to
that effect.]

After confirming all the paths were correct as far as I could, 

I followed the paths to where the exe should have been, and also searched the
entire tree to discover that no exicutable Studio.exe file was ever installed,
no Wine link was created, and only the Studio\ 2.0.lnk was created.
So when I clicked on it, it kept trying to run itself, over and over again.

I deleted the .lnk's and re-downloaded Studio 2.0 from the Bricklink.com site,
this time being careful to Not check the desktop shortcut.

I now have an installed studio.exe file, but no desktop shortcut.

I have to reboot to see if Studio 2.0 will function, but that means closing
this report.
