Also, please keep in mind that one should not run Wine as root as this
looks like what you might have tried or you installed Wine as root and
it created a .wine folder under the $HOME directory for the user you are
trying to run winecfg as.
Please do the following:
rm -rf ~/.wine
if you receive error messages about not being able to do so, then do the
following:
sudo rm -rf ~/.wine
type in your user password
and then
winecfg
which will recreate the ~/.wine folder as the present user with
appropriate permissions.
Thank you.
