Won't install Wizard101 on Ubuntu using Wine

Asked by Steven Carlson

I can't right click on the downloaded item so the I can extract it into Wine. It just comes up with this error.

Archive: /tmp/InstallWizard101.exe
[/tmp/InstallWizard101.exe]
  End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not
  a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the
  latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on
  the last disk(s) of this archive.
zipinfo: cannot find zipfile directory in one of /tmp/InstallWizard101.exe or
          /tmp/InstallWizard101.exe.zip, and cannot find /tmp/InstallWizard101.exe.ZIP, period.

If you can please help me. What is going on and what can I do to fix it?

You need to set executable permissions on the file.

Right click, properties, permissions, mark user as executable

you don't extract it into wine. rather, you open with wine.
right click on the file and choose open with wine.

From where are you trying to right click the file?
