Log:

usr@LINUX:~$ firejail wine PapersPlease-1.1.65.msi
Reading profile /etc/firejail/wine.profile
Reading profile /etc/firejail/disable-common.inc

wine: cannot find L"C:\\windows\\system32\\PapersPlease-1.1.65.msi"

Parent is shutting down, bye...
usr@LINUX:~$

I can assure you it worked without firejail. Although I have only tested this in a VM.

@asdfghjz You probably need to add --whitelist="$(pwd)/PapersPlease-1.1.65.msi". There may be other whitelists needed too for wine, as I'm unfamiliar with using wine and firejail. It does seem odd that system32 in seems to map to your users $HOME dir.

I think it searches in system32 if it can't find the specified file in the current directory (which firejail is preventing).
You could copy the file into your wine C: drive (~/.wine/drive_c/) and run it from there. That should work without any profile changes or additional whitelists.
