I'm trying to set a default prefix of /opt/windows and while this works via the terminal, and when I echo out $WINEPREFIX I get /opt/windows, when launching apps or application installers, Wine keeps trying to load/run them from /home/user/.wine. The user I'm using owns the /opt/windows directory as I used chown to change the owner.
I edited my .bashrc file to include WINEPREFIX=/opt/windows but for some reason, this doesn't seem to have any effect. Still the same thing - via the terminal it's correct, via the desktop, it is not.
Literally I used these commands to change the prefix:
Code: Select all
export WINEPREFIX=/opt/windows
wine winecfg
Using Arch Linux along with winetricks and wine-mono. Fresh install.
