desktop and menu icons createad by wine doesn't work

When I install win32 application (under wine) desktop and menu icons (under GNOME) are created.
Application works great if I run it under terminal, for example:

cd ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Atlantis/
./Atlantis.exe

But shortcut created on desktop and in menu doesn't work.
This is from my Atlantis.desktop (

cat Atlantis.desktop |grep Exec

):

Exec=env WINEPREFIX="/home/qwak/.wine" wine "C:\\Program Files\\Atlantis\\Atlantis.exe"

When I type in terminal:
env WINEPREFIX="/home/qwak/.wine" wine "C:\\Program Files\\Atlantis\\Atlantis.exe"
Output is:

wine: cannot find 'C:\Program'

I have this problem with all installed windows application.

I use arch64 (and bin32-wine 0.9.35-1 package).

works for me. i guess it's a 64bit related problem.
You could try to rename the *.reg files in the .wine dir to force wine to create new ones. I don't know if this is the crrect way to do this. Your program settings might be in there. Either way your wine path settings seem screwed up. Also check winecfg to see that all is in order.

It can be 64 bit problem.
I will send problem description to Arch64 & Other Architectures section.
