Running drag'n'drop .exe on linux
OS: Kubuntu 24.04.5 LTS Plasma 5
Situation: I have 64-bit .exe app from a game developper (official tool). It’s a drag and drop texture converter, that accepts one or a batch of image files and outputs copies in proper format. It has no GUI, just opens commandline window, shows progress, outputs error messages, if there was any, outputs log and closes after you click confirmation button in dialog window.
Issue: AFAIK, simple drag and drop doesn't work. Despite it having no GUI, I tried running app via Wine. It does't work with any of the runners + 64 or 32 bit options, or any of Windows version emulations. If I run it with 64-bit option and open the log, it says "bad exe format". If I run it with 32-bit option, it says something about it not beeing a 32-bit app.
How do I properly run these kind of apps on Linux (how to tell Linux to use "this" app to process "these" files)? Search suggestions are somewhat contradictory and doesn't get to the bottom of it (I guess nobody uses such niche app on Linux).
