In general, programs written for one Operating System are incompatible with another OS that does not use the same underlying File System structure.
Example
If you want to run Windows programs in Linux, you need a "translator" that can make sense of the Windows programs within the Linux environment.
Excerpted:
Wine (originally an acronym for "Wine Is Not an Emulator") is a compatibility layer capable of running Windows applications on several POSIX-compliant operating systems, such as Linux, macOS, & BSD. Instead of simulating internal Windows logic like a virtual machine or emulator, Wine translates Windows API calls into POSIX calls on-the-fly, eliminating the performance and memory penalties of other methods and allowing you to cleanly integrate Windows applications into your desktop.
Depending on your flavor of Linux and the current state of the Wine not-an-emulator software, there may be problems with Wine talking to USB ports.
