I have tried a few different ways of opening this file to be immediately greeted with this error. Any ideas what is the cause of this? It is a larger .exe file at 2g in size.

How are you opening it? Just double-clicking in a GUI? I'm guessing you're not even running Wine and a file extractor is associating itself with all exe files (since some are extractable).
