Dear Friends ,

I want to run "windows .exe" file into Linux platform .Is it Possible to do ?

Plz Inform .. ..

Yes, not all of them will work and it will probably/may take tweaking but WINE does what you want.

If wine /path-to-exe doesn't work then you are using a library(dll) type of exe install?
do you have a copy of win98? also try using wine-doors/ side doors or side wine something/winexs/ or if you want to pay a little 15 for cedega(games)/ 30 for crossover(regular win apps or office types & some games).
wine by itself works for small-test-stuff like: md5summer/winimage/notepad++/win32pad/hash-on-click/ .

myself, i haven't really had too much luck with office,games,Greeting card factory or other big stuff.. maybe it's my LoN or my distro? -best of luck!

It's implied in the other replies, but you may need to install the WINE package. It should be available in your package manager.

You can also look at Crossover--this is the commercial port of WINE. They have a free trial period.

For more specifics, tell us your distro and what SW you want to run.

If you mean the Windows operating system by naming 'windows.exe' than you have to use virtualization, something like VMware (http://www.vmware.com) or Innotek's VirtualBox (http://www.virtualbox.org/). These allow you to run a Windows system within Linux, and they both have free evaluation versions.

If you just want to run some Windows applications, the installing 'wine' might help for a large number of applications. For rather large applications (MS Office, some Adobe packages) this needs non-trivial tweaks and setups.
