> Why don't you just copy the files from .winetrickscache to some other location? and then do what exactly? the current winetricks script attempts to download selected runtime libraries for installation when executed - is it possible to run the script, select runtime libraries for installation, but have winetricks use archived libraries (on a user's local disk) for the installation as opposed to retrieving the runtime libraries from on-line? any useful comments would be appreciated. thanks. thed .
