I'm new to Linux,so the problem is,I have some installers of windows games and I wanna install them to the Lutris games Prefixes,but I don't know how.

If I do it with my systems wine version,it will install it to my normal prefix and sometimes it doesn't work with my wine version.

It depends. I already installed several games but it needs a previous knowledge of what is the best Wine configuration for your specific game. In some cases it is enough a default Lutris configuration for Windows 10 and 64-bit architecture, in others it will be necessary to modify the settings (like DirectX). If you have a previous game in your library, you can try to open the .exe file for the new game and see if it runs and install... if it runs, then just repeat the same configuration as the previous game and everything will work as expected.
