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 (in bash):

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 with space(s) in path or name.
I use arch64 and bin32-wine 0.9.35-1 package.
This topic was moved from Desktop Environments section, because it's probably 64bit version only problem (it's not confirmed by arch32 users).

Re: desktop and menu icons createad by wine doesn't work

I have the same problem, it used to work with wine 0.9.27 from bin32-wine but not with 0.9.35.
The problem is that the wine command doesn't correctly read paths with spaces
