Here is the log https://gist.github.com/steakhutzeee...39241aadfd8c81

In there I see mentions to "experimental wow64 mode". That means that it's a problem? Or just an info?
I am not a Linux or Wine user so my knowledge is limited. However the message:

0220:err:environ:init_peb starting L"Z:\\home\\steakhutzeee\\.wineprefixes\\kindle_pr eviewer\\dosdevices\\c:\\users\\steakhutzeee\\AppD ata\\Local\\Amazon\\Kindle Previewer 3\\lib\\fc\\bin\\MobiContentDumper.exe" in experimental wow64 mode

seems significant to me. MobiContentDumper is one of several programs that the Kindle Previewer launches as part of its conversion process. Something seems to be going wrong with it, but what exactly I cannot say.
