Need one Windows program and can't get it running under Wine (lemmy.ca)

I dumped Windows about 6 months ago and have not had a moment of regret. But our volunteer fire department just started using a Windows (only) tool for managing call outs etc.

I'm running Debian 13.3 and the Wine 10.0 from Debian.

I've played around a bit and worked through a few minor issues and can now run the various apps that ship with Wine - including iexplorer with network.

But when I try to run the one app I need, I get the following text:

The application opens, but just displays an empty window. I'm guessing it's trying to connect to their server before doing something else.

I believe the app I'm trying to run is electron based and my searches show that this has historically been an issue and I've tried a few of the hints I found - even though they were years old and for old versions of Wine.

I know it's a long shot, but do these error messages suggest anything obvious that I should try?

You can try winboat but it's quite heavy. Basically runs windows in a container and passes access through to it. Apps can be installed in it and have seamless integration with your desktop.

Alternatively, you can also talk to your group and look around for alternatives.

I don't use this laptop for much else, so heavy isn't an issue - I might end up trying winboat.
