Prefix or Suffix Needed for WinApps Application Names to Prevent System Conflicts
WinApps should utilise a prefix or suffix to indicate configured programs are Windows applications.
Installing Git Bash on Windows and configuring shortcuts to the application via WinApps creates a new bash that overrides the system's own bash. This caused issues logging into my system, and I was only able to recover by temporarily changing my init process to /bin/bash via GRUB to delete the incorrect bash created by the WinApps installer in ~/.local/bin/.
This problem can be easily prevented by appending "wa_" or "_winapps" to the beginning or end of application names within installer.sh.
