Hey, So I don't actually know why but I'd realy like to get in to a few games of LoL again.

I installed wine and Lutris on Fedora. Wine creates the folder for League but when it should start the launcher I recieve an error message that Leagueoflegends.exe cannot be found.

Did anybody run in this problem and knows how to fix it?

Thanks

Did you use Lutris' preset Wine prefix and settings for LoL from the Lutris website when you tried installing? You can find or search for the presets directly in Lutris. I think you also do need to have the .exe available if I remember right from having installed it recently.

Had the same issue with and without the LoL settings. What do you mean with have the .exe available? Download it manually?

Right, download the .exe from the LoL website.

I'm using an arch distro, so take my advice with a grain of salt...however I use this version (and manually add an entry to Lutris to launch this version).

Once I switched over to this method, I've had very little trouble launching LoL.

Check out the community at https://kbin.social/m/leagueoflinux ; they even have a wiki with instructions on how to install LoL and other things.

Returning to your issue. Is Leagueoflegends.exe present in the Wine folder? If there is, attempt to fix the path in lutris; if not, try reinstall.

No it's not. Trying to reinstall doesnt work either, reinstalled wine and lutris via Flatpak and Rpm but it's always the same problem.

I will have a look on the other Community, maybe I find the right trick.

Worked great for me on Arch when installed via this Lutris link. Whenever Riot breaks something someone will figure it out and update the scripts then you just need to reinstall. Good luck!
