Winetricks: Can't seem to reset to default.

[ExpWithWineHQ]

I've been doing a lot of searching around the internet, but can't seem to find anything that tells me how to do what I want to do with winetricks. Just the other day, with the help of one of our forum members, I got my first Windows application to install and run! But before I made my post, I was trying to read the wineHQ wiki and some other tutorials. And I was trying my own experiments to see what I could do on my own.

One of the programs I was trying to get installed was adobeair. It is installed now. But in the winetricks I have two annoying entries that I can't seem to get rid of. One of them is even misspelled.

If possible I would like to get rid of:
Select adobeair
Select adobeaire

Winetricks uses its own place to store various prefixes.
By default, this is ${HOME}/.local/share/wineprefixes

If you want to change the name of the wineprefix then you can rename the folder.

Code: Select all

cd "${HOME}/.local/share/wineprefixes"
mv adobeaire "Adobe Air"

If you don't use the prefix at all, then you can delete the folder.

Code: Select all

cd "${HOME}/.local/share/wineprefixes"
rm -r adobeaire

In your previous post, you used the default wine prefix in ${HOME}/.wine. So you can probably delete both directories without any problems.

I moved them both into a backup folder, and it appears that it fixed it. I should be able to delete them.

Code: Select all

~/.local/share/wineprefixes$ ls -a
.  ..  Backup

Code: Select all

~/.local/share/wineprefixes/Backup$ ls -a
.  ..  adobeair  adobeaire
