For any game i try to install under wine i get Initial process has exited error and for the life of me i can’t find why. In wine runner preferences i enabled Output debugging info but if i start lutris from terminal with lutris -d and try to install the game, then in the debugging output i don’t see anything that can tell my what is the reason for this error. Here is one of the debug output:
