Wine will not reinstall a program

Post by robin »

I am using Unbuntu Intrepid 8.10 with the latest wine.

When I click on a setup file for a program I have had running previous
to reinstalling 8.10, I get an error message:

Setup was unable to create the directory "c:\windows\js-jwhu.tmp"

error 3: path not found.


Are there any solutions to this?

It is mypassword (setup.exe)

Removing wine completely and reinstalling makes no difference.

What program? Does removing ~/.wine help?

Instead of using synaptic to remove wine I used the following:

$ rm -rf ~/.wine

This did work. Austin had posted the string in a reply to a different question.
