Steam kicking back "Error 5" when launched in Wine

I've just made an attempt to install Steam through Wine, and managed to get through it. However, now that I have the .exe installed, I cannot open steam at all. It goes directly to the following error message:

Steam.exe (main exception): Cannot open blob archive file: CMultifieldBlob(mem-mapped file): Failed to open existing file, Win32 Error 5 "Access denied"

There is also a "lock" on the icon, if that means anything.

The wine version is 0.9.46
