Forgot to mention that the work around is to run the wine command from the correct directory in the console. Works just fine thank you, but the shortcut would be nice.
One gets into operating habits, and find the facilities missing is rather more than slightly annoying. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1236089 Title: Nautilus does not sense the presence of wine Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Description: Ubuntu Saucy Salamander (development branch) Release: 13.10 nautilus: Installed: 1:3.8.2-0ubuntu1 Candidate: 1:3.8.2-0ubuntu1 Version table: *** 1:3.8.2-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ saucy/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status Installed today: Description: Ubuntu Saucy Salamander (development branch) Release: 13.10 wine: Installed: 1.6-0ubuntu1~ppa3 Candidate: 1.6-0ubuntu1~ppa3 Version table: *** 1.6-0ubuntu1~ppa3 0 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-wine/ppa/ubuntu/ saucy/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1.4.1-0ubuntu7 0 500 http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ saucy/universe amd64 Packages The right click facility to open a windows exe does not present the wine windows program loader as an option. I prepared a screen shot for this but was unable to crop it using the GIMP because nautilus doesn't recognize that it is also present (installed yesterday).

No joy. I realise this is beta software, but wouldn't it be sensible to get the file system interface up almost before anything else? Installed packages such as this must appear in the application choice listing after they've been installed. This may turn out to be a problem with the installer (apt), but the symptoms are that nautilus is sick. Hoping for an early fix, the frozen north signs out.
