Also, what is SUDO? I'm not sure as to what that is exactly. I am using a Mac, but could you walk me through? Whenever I remove Wine, and then reinstall it, I can go to the File Manager, click Shell, and go to the trash that has the icon of a trash can, and it still shows everything I have deleted, and I want to remove that. Thanks.
