[SOLVED] Wine doesen't open windows of some programs

Hello! Today I tried to install Thundermaster (app for RGB controlling on Palit GPUs). Installation was successful, there were no error messages. But when I'm trying to execute the app one issue appears... Wine is actually runs the app, its icon shows up in system tray and it's functional. But when I  rightclick on the icon and pressing the "open" button nothing happens, window doesen't shows up. At the same time audacity runs fine and I can see its window.

Here is what happens in terminal while I'm trying to launch Thundermaster:

0214:fixme:wincodecs:jpeg_decoder_get_metadata_blocks stub
0214:fixme:wincodecs:jpeg_decoder_get_metadata_blocks stub
0214:fixme:wincodecs:jpeg_decoder_get_metadata_blocks stub
0214:fixme:wincodecs:jpeg_decoder_get_metadata_blocks stub
0214:fixme:wincodecs:jpeg_decoder_get_metadata_blocks stub
0214:fixme:wincodecs:jpeg_decoder_get_metadata_blocks stub
0214:fixme:toolhelp:CreateToolhelp32Snapshot Unimplemented: heap list snapshot
0214:fixme:wincodecs:jpeg_decoder_get_metadata_blocks stub

I don't know how to fix it. I kinda did everything by following the instructions (which I found on youtube xd | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MYHSGp_KH9o | )

I'm ready to answer any questions
Will be glad if there's any variant to solve the problem.

You're generally not going to get things working that need direct access to the hardware, wine doesn't and can't expose these kind of low level bits and pieces, and you also can't install HW drivers for Windows and expect them to work.

Something you can check is whether these leds might be supported by OpenRGB which is a package you can simply install: https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/openrgb/ -- but there's no warranty and no guarantees.
