There are many native alternatives to do the same, as good or better then IDM. And Wine doesn't need to be launched. At best, occasionally we need to open Wine settings to change something, but for the most part we open Windows installers with Wine.

youtube-dl (CLI), java based JDownloader, dozens of Firefox and Chrome addons, etc. ... But regarding you question, once installed, Wine is automatically associated with .exe and .msi and probably others. So, apparently, you didn't install Wine. Please edit and describe what you tried to install Wine (it should be as simple as installing it with Ubuntu Software ).
