wine users - Mar 2009 - I managed to break my Wine Directory Structure

While trying to copy some files over from the retail version of Windows XP
Professional in an attempt to make more stuff work under Wine, which failed
miserably, I screwed up the directory of my virtual C drive. Is there a way to
completely delete the C drive and all files from it, and reset the directory
structure to default? Many applications dont function properly any more...

"rm -r .wine" in your home folder. than just start wine again....

Thanks! It appears to have worked.

Your Linux distribution comes with one.  You should learn how to use it and then
remove all of the Wine entries.  Wine does not and cannot do this for you.

If you're on Ubuntu, go to "System->Preferences->Main Menu"
or something similar and play around with it.

I personally don't think Wine should do it, but I'm a "each
software does only one and one thing, without any interaction" fanboy.
