> So the problem may be how the solitaire file was copied from the windows folder to the wine, windows folder. Most applications will not work by copying from a windows folder. > I ran nautilus with sudo command to make a copy of the file. Could that be the problem? Yes, of course. Using root to copy things can give the root as the only user that has access to files. This is especially true if you are copying from a windows filesystem. > If that is the case, then I must learn how to change or remove the file ownership. Yes its a good idea to have at least some basic understanding of the linux operating system. Without knowing the most basic things in linux you will be at a serious disadvantage using wine. > Or will it be easier to start over by removing and reinstalling wine? Reinstalling wine will have no effect on this problem. The permissions will still be wrong.
