This is my question. I want to install some mods to my games, but the program files folder in wine looks empty (only IE) Where are the game folders??
Thanks.

By default your wine virtual windows is at


$HOME/.wine

Turn on hidden files in your file manager to browse that.

I know that, but my Program files folder in .wine is empty, only the default folders installed when I installed wine.

How did you install your games? If it was with a third party script, it probably installed to a different wineprefix than the default.

To find where the program(s) got to, try:

sudo updatedb
locate progname.exe

Why so complicated? Besides locate is not installed on most modern distros. Regular "find" will be enough:

What is so complex in typing two simple commands? I suggested running
updatedb because it is typically run as an overnight cron job and Murphy
says the OP will have tried the install since it was last run.

Its been part of RedHat distros forever and is still part of it.

...and a *lot* slower that updatedb+locate

find ~/.wine -iname '*exe'

will typically be even quicker (or substitute ~/.wine with a
wineprefix if you use multiple ones)

I used playonlinux. So, this is the problem?

Yes! The games are in the .PlayOnlinux Folder. Thanks xD
