Can't Open "C:\" Drive

Post by jallp82 »

I am using Xubuntu 8.04 64bit. When I click the link to view the "C:\" drive it gives me error "The URL "~/.wine/drive_c" is not supported." I'm trying to uninstall my attempted install of Windows Media Player 10 but it doesn't show up in the Uninstall Wine Software program. So just want to go in and delete it manually. I am fairly new to Linux.

Thanks

That was a ubuntu bug, iirc. Try using thunar to navigate to that directory.

Just remove/rename ~/.wine directory. This of course will remove all windows programs installed under Wine.
