Research direction
Start by reproducing the Epic Games Launcher installation failure in Bottles using the reported MSI and checking whether the expected EpicGamesLauncher.exe path is created. Review the program installation definition and its post-install check; done means the launcher installs successfully and the check recognizes the executable.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
The app says:
Checks failed, the program is not installed
and in the terminal:
During checks, file /home/william/.var/app/com.usebottles.bottles/data/bottles/bottles/Epic-Games-Launcher/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Epic Games/Launcher/Portal/Binaries/Win32/EpicGamesLauncher.exe was not found, assuming it is not installed. Aborting.
I already tried several times, with latest Wine or Soda, with the .msi installer downloaded from their website too.
