So I installed wine64 and wine32 sudo apt install --install-recommends wine64 wine32 and I’m not sure where it go from there I did some googling and got to this wine ~/Downloads/Creality_Slicer-X.X.X.exe but changed it to the name of the download file after I downloaded it from Firefox it was the windows version. Crealityprint_6.1.2.2458_Release.exe is it case sensitive or am I missing some setup for wine. Please excuse the code not being copy able I left for work and later used my iPhone to ask this.

You may be better off downloading and installing the Appimage version of Creality Print for Linux which will run natively on your PC rather through the Wine Windows translator software.
You can find the download link for Linux towards the end of this Creality Slicer website.
After downloading it you should then refer to this ItsFOSS article on the next steps to using AppImage in Linux.
This is achieved in 3 steps as outlined.
- Download AppImage file
- Make it executable
- Run it
The article goes on to explain those steps in more detail including a launcher option to use the application using a stable PPA to launch the AppImage Launcher.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:appimagelauncher-team/stable
sudo apt update
sudo apt install appimagelauncher
Once installed, you can open any AppImage file you downloaded by double-clicking. AppImage Launcher interface will be popped up and ask permission to integrate the AppImage with the system menu.
If you should the wish then to remove Wine you can follow the instructions in this answer.
You will wish to now that -
AppImage is a relatively new packaging format that gives you a click-to-run way of running applications in Linux. Unlike traditional DEB/RPM packages, AppImages can be used on any distribution and this is what makes them so attractive to the Linux users
