Just switched over from Fedora 32 and so far I’m really impressed with Manjaro. VERY polished OS that works effortlessly and incredibly sleek. I’m extremely happy. My only issue that I’m having is bringing over my one Windows application that I must have for my job - Cisco’s CCX Editor (call center scripting tool). It did work in F32 fine and it installed fine in Manjaro (20.1 DE-KDE) but when I run it it locks up. After killing the process and running from cli I see the error is coming from:
wine "C:\Program Files (x86)\wfavvid_1162\CiscoUnifiedCCXEditor.exe"

I installed winetricks as well as libgnutls but still get the same error. I also tried to run with wine64 but to no avail. Anyone have ideas?
Try to setup your application in Lutris and see if you get better result? Also it is preferable to do it this way so you can keep a stable Wine prefix, that will not change after every Manjaro/WINE update if you want to have a more reliable Windows application.
Maybe Fedora doesn’t use the same WINE version as Manjaro? Try to find the differences maybe?
Did you install also the lib32 gnutls?
The Lutris setup is worth a try. You can select various WINE version and can also easily set lot of options from GUI.
//EDIT:
Maybe you also simply need to install the prerequisites for this specific application too? Some application require dotNet or things like that.
Lutris is a great idea that I’d not heard of or used. I’ve had issues with some things in the past after wine updates - as we all have. I pulled that package down and pointed it to the files but it tell me, “no file provided.” I’ve not read any of the documentation on this so I’ll definitely be playing with this a little later. I queried using pacman for all libgnutls and I found that I had installed SEVERAL variables and add-ons to it but I did not have the 32-bit version. Pulled that one down and voila, it’s running now. Thanks for calling that out specifically and for the Lutris intro!
The best thing I love about Lutris is that you separate each Windows application inside its own environment, it is not shared with all the applications and avoids a LOT of issues sometimes, when an application requires some XXX prerequisite to be installed, and another application require YYY prerequisite that interfere or conflicts with XXX. In Lutris no worry, your WINE prefix is specific to each application.
That and also the fact that for a lot of Windows application (mostly GAMES though) there are pre-made install scripts that will prepare everything inside Lutris for you, you just need to click click
It can be a little confusing to configure your own setup for an application, but there are a lot of help on the internet I think to get you started using it.
After all, if your basic system WINE setup works, you can also not worry about Lutris
