Description

I recently switched over to a new Ubuntu OS and thcrap no longer functions. Whenever I try to run a patched version of the game (Touhou 8, if it helps) it gives me the wine error "L'Could not open thcrap\thcraploader.exe".
I have already tried many solutions given in other threads, such as copying all .dll files from the bin to the main thcrap directory, it doesn't fix the problem. I would seriously appreciate some help here. Thank you in advance.

Research direction

The report names thcraploader.exe and a patched Touhou 8 launch under Ubuntu, but no source file or test is identified. Start by reproducing the launch through Wine and tracing why thcrap\thcraploader.exe cannot be opened; done means identifying a confirmed cause and a reproducible fix or documented workaround.
