axnate	I want to run some windows apps that don't have installation files. They just have exe's and maybe some other files. Playonlinux seems to want an installation package to install. I simply want to run a executable that didn't come with an installation. What's the best way to do this in Playonlinux?

petch	- Create a virtual drive "Configure" button > "New" button (bottom left) - Copy the exe into the virtual drive Should be below ~/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/NameOfYourVirtualDrive/drive_c/ - Create a shortcut "Configure" button > (select NameOfYourVirtualDrive) > "General" tab > "Create a shortcut from this virtual drive" button ^{My scripts wiki: https://github.com/petchema/playonlinux/wiki} ^{GOGmix: https://www.gog.com/en/mix/playonlinux_install_scripts}
