The only Windows-only stuff I have run in the last 15+ years of using Linux are games, and then I just pick one that works out of the box on Steam for Linux. The transition period was rough, but now I just don’t even consider what Windows-only software exists and stick to Linux software, and I’ve solved every problem I’ve had so far.
If you really need something, either WINE or a VM works. I actually have a separate drive on my desktop with Windows installed, but I haven’t needed to boot up Windows in years. But it’s there if I absolutely need it.

My solution is to not run that app.

So do I. It sits in its vm jail and does its job, or I roll back the snapshot
If so, then you either need WINE, a VM, or dual boot.
