You cannot run .exe files under Linux You need to get equivalent Linux app. Another option is use Wine software to run .exe program or apps such as MS office

Quote:
Wine is a project which aims to allow a PC with an x86 architecture processor running a Unix-like operating system and the X Window System to execute programs that were originally written for Microsoft Windows. Alternatively, those wishing to port a Windows application to a Unix-like system can compile it against the Wine libraries in the form of Winelib.
