Alright and WHAT do I do when I run winetricks then! Enlighten me because all I'm being told is to run wine tricks or install something(never specified) through winetricks

Made a new .wine directory reinstalled the application I been trying to test, and out of the box it worked. So now my question is how do I fix my old .wine installation to be able to run the other application?

Setting all DLLs back to native in winecfg should do the trick.

I would just use more than 1 prefix. You can change your launchers to
reflect this.

as obvious as it is I don't know much about WINEPREFIX. Don't got the time to actually check right now so I'll just ask. If I used

Code: Select all

WINEPREFIX=~/.wine_large winecfg
would that reflect me editing that wine directories configurations?

No but

WINEPREFIX=~/.wine_large wine winecfg

would.

It may not be necessary to use wine, but I always do.

Doesn't winecfg by itself refer to "wine winecfg", anyway? It's always worked fine for me, even with a custom prefix...

Which vcrun have you installed with winetricks? This is 2005sp1.

I've installed both sp1 and the actual vcrun2005 via winetricks. I removed my dlls from winecfg menu
