To rule out an error in the Wine installation, is it possible to start winecfg in a clean wineprefix?

Code: Select all

WINEPREFIX=${HOME}/wine-test wine winecfg

Can you tell us more about your computer? Is it a real or a virtual computer?
Does the development version of Wine work?

Code: Select all

sudo apt install wine-devel wine-devel-amd64 wine-devel-i386:i386
WINEPREFIX=${HOME}/wine-test /opt/wine-devel/bin/wine winecfg

Its a real computer.The development version works after installing wine-devel and its winecfg launched the mono installer dialog box

Does Wine stable work if you use the full path name?

Code: Select all

WINEPREFIX=${HOME}/wine-test /opt/wine-stable/bin/wine winecfg

Does a reinstallation bring any improvement?

Code: Select all

sudo apt install --reinstall winehq-stable wine-stable wine-stable-amd64 wine-stable-i386:i386

If you want, you can remove the Wine-devel packages, but it is not a problem to have several Wine versions installed side by side.
