Running RM 9 on Linux/Wine

again I know nothing abt your system

when you want to open a file, are you using something like search for file or get a box similar to this
image
BTW— I had to go back to RM 7 for this–I haven’t found it anywhere on RM 9 which should have this

Anyway on the first image in RM 7-- it use to be that if I clicked on SEARCH FOR A FILE–it would take forever as it seemed to search the entire system on the computer–learned very quickly to click on OPEN A FILE which took me right to the RM 7 folder–just a thought and maybe somebody out there knows more than I do…
