I have found that steam proton is a powerful wine machine. I'm not sure if it would help with any of the programs you are trying to run as it does have limits, but I've been shoving a ton of .exe files into steam and they usually work flawlessly.

    I wasn't aware that was an option. Do you have a link on how to do that?

    Steam can't tell if something is a "game" or not, so you do it the same way as playing a non-steam game through the launcher
