I understand that it is applied automatically when needed, but there are times when one would want to run it manually. An example is when I want to literally create a new wine prefix such as env WINEPREFIX="/home/bamm/apps/myprog" wineprefixcreate to prepare a clean profile for future installation of myprog. I know that running setup with a WINEPREFIX would create the clean profile,

wineprefixcreate does not create a working registry. The system had a working set of .wine .reg files however installs of office2k failed. I then saved .wine and rebuilt it with wineprefixcreate. After this the original applications did not work. Is wineprefixcreate supposed to succeed at this? Thanks - Dan

When ~/.wine does not exist, or more specifically the system.reg does not yet exist, wineprefixcreate delivers the message "Failed to open the service control manager."

What is the proper way to register this key. In

The NVidia driver is running on the desktop. wine 0.9.15 on Mandriva 2006.0 wineprefixcreate works if it is not running within the vncserver but rather on the regular nvidia X session. By the way I got the GoogleEarth beta to run on the Nvidia

Hi everybody! About the email bellow, I just want to add one thing. I noticed that wineprefixcreate does not create some folder it used to. For instance it does not make Program Files anymore? Is this normal? It seems a change to me. One more thing: some programs work when I call them with wine-kthread, but never when I use wine-pthread. Again: any hints?

Winetricks is not a part of Wine, but it is supported here as it's an official side project and its creator is on the forums/mailing list. Winetricks is available from the Wine Wiki (see links at top of page) ( http://wiki.winehq.org/winetricks ). Just run winetricks by itself and navigate the menus, or type winetricks ie6 in a terminal to install Internet Explorer.

I'm using a fresh install of Fedora Core 5 with the RPM install of Wine 0.9.12. When I run winecfg, it says "wine: creating configuration directory '/home/vince/.wine'..." as I expect it to. Following that is many lines of "Font metrics" progress with a few "fixme:font" messages. Nothing seems too unusual. But, when it gets to "Font metrics:

Hello Wine users, I've installed Wine 0.9.32 into an NFS-mounted dir on a RHEL 3 machine and it seems to work fine - I've even modified the /nfs_path/wine/bin/wineprefixcreate, so that an additional dir (c:/Perl) is created under ~/.wine for each user (by mere linking to /nfs_path/Perl) My problem is that currently each user of my Wine-installation has to run "wine regedit"

I've decided to try out some games with wine 1.1.4 to see if there is improvements (mainly with Bioshock) and, as always, I first created a prefix for those tests.
