Hiya!

I've just downloaded a few games with the filetype "exe". It just wont allow me to execute it, why? It just says permission denied.

Could you give a hand?

Thanks

Erik

.exe's are windows programs usually. If you got a installer, you may need to chmod +x it.

chmod +x setup.sh
./setup.sh

Maybe you should learn about Linux before playing games...

chmod +x kchel35.exe
./kchel35.exe
