Wine support

Hi, it would be nice to have wine support for this tool, as it looks really promising.
Also an standard .exe installer would be nice.

I tried setting up TraceX in wine

• got direct appx download link from ms store using https://store.rg-adguard.net/
• extracted Microsoft.AzureRTOSTraceX_6.1.12.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe.AppxBundle
• from this, extracted Microsoft.AzureRTOSTraceX_6.1.12.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe/tracex_package_6.1.12.0_x86.appx
• now you got a TraceX folder containing TraceX.exe
• after some fiddling I found at that TraceX requires DotNet 4.8, so I installed it using winetricks: winetricks dotnet48
• now I could run TraceX, but the UI is only partially responsive and somewhat laggy.

System: Fedora 41
It might also be an issue related to my sway window manager, I will eventually try it out using some other setup.

Oh im am sorry that I did not also check the closed issues before opening another issue. Referencing #13

Hi @mo-krauti.

I will make a standalone installer available soon, as mentioned in #15. As for testing under Wine, I am afraid I lack the time. Our long-term goal is to replace the current MFC-based applications with cross-platform replacements, but this will not happen anytime soon.

I will leave this issue open for the time being.

Ok, thank you very much.
I was able to run the TraceX tool from Microsoft Store inside a VM for a few times, but now every time I load a trace file or just even click the open file dialog, TraceX exists immediately. I tested this using costum trace files from our application and the demo trace files. It would be nice to have some kind of debug output to improve error reporting, if it is possible to do a debug build.
