===== Issues =====

==== JPG file not associated ====
Command:
<code bash>mimeopen -d file.jpg </code>
doesn't show IrfanView to choose. 

Create file ''/home/user/.local/share/applications/wine-extension-jpg.desktop'' and set if to handle ''image/jpeg''
Also remove ''env WINEPREFIX'' line when using default prefix

<file wine-extension-jpg.desktop>
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=IrfanView 32-bit
MimeType=image/jpeg;
Exec=wine-stable start /ProgIDOpen IrfanView.jpg %f
NoDisplay=true
StartupNotify=true
Icon=7BE4_i_view32.0
</file>

Update the mime cache: update-desktop-database /home/user/.local/share/applications

==== WINEPREFIX: not an absolute path ====
If default wineprefix is used, the env variable WINEPREFIX cannot be set to the same default prefix directory.



====== Linux alternative ======

==== Nomacs ====

In Debian Buster <code bash>apt-get install nomacs</code>

==== XnViewMP ====
