windows program

Asked by Troy Hendrix

Trying to use a windows program through wine uploader and I get this message "The file '/home/troy/Desktop/Program Files/VCW VicMan's Photo Editor/vcwphoto.exe' is not marked as executable. If this was downloaded or copied from an untrusted source, it may be dangerous to run. For more details, read about the executable bit." What do I do next????

chmod +x /home/troy/Desktop/Program Files/VCW\ VicMan\'s\ Photo\ Editor/vcwphoto.exe; wine /home/troy/Desktop/Program Files/VCW\ VicMan\'s\ Photo\ Editor/vcwphoto.exe

Should do it

@actionparsnip : the wine project is subscribed by an active guy. Could you think to attach question to wine project. The packet openoffice.org is also actively subscribed.
