PvZ not opening the .exe file to run the game


[/home/user/.cache/.fr-vySk2Z/Plants vs. Zombies/PlantsVsZombies.exe]
End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not
a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the
latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on
the last disk(s) of this archive.
zipinfo: cannot find zipfile directory in one of /home/user/.cache/.fr-vySk2Z/Plants vs. Zombies/PlantsVsZombies.exe or
/home/user/.cache/.fr-vySk2Z/Plants vs. Zombies/PlantsVsZombies.exe.zip, and cannot find /home/user/.cache/.fr-vySk2Z/Plants vs. Zombies/PlantsVsZombies.exe.ZIP, period.

That is the message I get when it opens, I don't really know what it means...

You do know that *.exe are Windows executables and won't run under Ubuntu? It *might* run under WINE.
