[Wine] copying .wine to new PC : were are the menus entries ?
Hi, I'm moving my config to a new PC. I do not wish to reinstall all Windows apps under Wine. So I installed Wine on the new PC (Ubuntu 11.10), ran wincfg and then I copied the files from the old PC /home/.wine to the new one. My problem is : how can I recover the menu entries that were created when I first installed the Windows apps under Wine ? I searched the whole file system for .desktop files but none seems to be ones I look for. Thanks.

Aren't they in /home/mohican/.local/share/applications ? or /home/mohican/.local/share/applications/wine

Hi, thanks for the answer. I just saw your message today, being back from vacation. In the meantime I have found out that, in order to transfer wine (with all its installed applications) to a new system, you need to copy ~/.wine plus the following additionnal ressources : ~/.config/menu/ (beware if you have already modified your menu -> merge it) ~/.local/share/applications (only the .desktop files starting with "wine") ~/.local/share/applications/wine ~/.local/share/desktop-directories ~/.local/share/icons ~/.local/share/mime
