My personal strategy, for those who are interested... I have my hard disk partitioned into two sections (you could also do a separate folder) One for linux and all my applications (/) One for my old Windows files, and programs installed for Wine (like Dreamweaver) (/windows) So installing/uninstalling wine, or even Linux itself, has no effect on what is stored in my separate Windows partition. This is great because the actual files like Word documents and Dreamweaver files, as well as folders like /Windows/system really have nothing to do with the wine program itself, so keeping them separate is what works for me. -----Original Message----- From: Mark Knecht [mailto:markknecht@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: January 11, 2005 11:41 AM To: scott@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: Angela Burrell; wine-users@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [Wine]correctly uninstalling/reinstalling wine? Maybe there's some strategy for setting up the actual drive locations of installed programs that could survive this? Maybe a directory for C:\Program Files that's not actually under .wine and pointed to by a link? Much appreciated if we can capture the registry settings so that Window apps would find what they expect. If you guys could come up with some ways to do this, document it and get it into WineTools that would be really great.
