config moved?

Post by Morgan Read »

Hi Folks

#1
Has ~/.wine/config
(http://www.codeweavers.com/support/docs ... onfig-file) moved?

Under ~/.wine/ I have no "config", but I do have the 3 files:
system.reg; user.reg; userdef.reg. Is one of these now the "config" file?

And
#2
I installed Windows native ole32.dll into ~/.wine/drive_c/windows (as
per the ole32.dll accompanying text file - well, "C:\windows" at least:
http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?ole32) and changed
winecfg to run ole32.dll as "Native (Windows)". Now wine doesn't run...
What do I need to change back to the it's original state and where do I
find it?

Regards,
Morgan.

IIRC the config file was replaced by the registry quite some time ago....

regedit and winecfg should be used for configuring Wine...

If you don't mind losing all installed applications in your WINEPREFIX
rm -r ~/.wine is probably the easiest....

The .reg files represent the Windows registry. winecfg does store some
settings in the registry, so in a way, but not entirely.

If winecfg won't start due to a DLL override, you can remove the
override by editing user.reg. Search for the
[Software\\Wine\\DllOverrides] section and remove any override that you
want to get rid of.

"codeweavers" is not the same as wine.

Give http://wiki.winehq.org/UsefulRegistryKeys a read.

Welcome to wine!
