Bug Description

Binary package hint: file-roller

This seems to happen for all Ubuntu based distos.
I really need some simple advice, that may be all.
Archive manager intercepts clicks on exe files, not wine.
I have disabled the AM before, no big problem yet, what are the consequences?
I really would like anything I click on to be expanded then have the exe sent to wine.
Could you do that?

And the last question: how best to get wine to have priority on exe files?
Sean
