I can not install battle.net

Support

Hello,
Recently I installed Debian in my computer, and when trying install battle.net appears me this message:

I give Him to install battle.net and in the process, exits me the following message:
OSError(‘Invalid Wine prefix path /home/USER/Games/battlenet, make sure to create the prefix before saving to to registry’)

To somebody has spent him? Some idea?

$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modulate plough available.
Distributor Go: Debian
Description: Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm)

$ lutris --version

Check the 2 links (the drivers link is NOT a copy paste, Debian does not use PPA’s so you need to remove the first part of the command referencing the ppa):

Hi,

I have executed these two instructions:

$ sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 && sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y wine64 wine32 libasound2-plugins:i386 libsdl2-2.0-0:i386 libdbus-1-3:i386 libsqlite3-0:i386

$ sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 && sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade && sudo apt install libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 mesa-vulkan-drivers mesa-vulkan-drivers:i386

Lutris Says me that all correct when installing Battle.net

Now, when giving him to “play” exits me the following message:

The file /home/$user/Games/battlenet/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Battle.net/Battle.net Launcher.exe could not be found

There are 2 things that point to a setup issue:
/home/USER/Games/battlenet,
/home/$user/Games/battlenet/

What is your user name??? It is not being recognized or left as USER which might be the issue

Hi

I have this route
$ realpath -e battlenet/
/home/$user/Games/battlenet

I don’t have Launcher.exe
~/Games$ find | grep -i Launcher.exe
./battlenet/drive_c/windows/system32/belauncher.exe
./battlenet/drive_c/windows/syswow64/belauncher.exe
