You asked how to remove all programs....

To run the uninstaller? 'wine uninstaller'.

Thank you, Austin, for the info regarding engaging Wine Uninstaller. For some reason, ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS recently dropped out of my WINE menu options. Where is the latter's executable normally found in the Linux file structure? [I'm using Mandriva 2009]. Pax, ~rc

Code: Select all

which wine
Will tell you where the 'wine' is.
"uninstaller" is an internal executable and should always be run with Wine.

Uninstaller

Post by Chard »

The information that uninstaller is an internal executable was highly useful. When re-building my WINE menu using Mandriva's KDE Menu Editor, I simply inserted “wine installer” in the Command Line and, upon saving, now the ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS dialog box pops up as expected. Thanx, ~rc
