James, still reading all the emails and trying to get this
working. Here's a terminal display which shows log.txt at the end of a
line. How can I send this to you or display the .txt? Bob

bobje1 is a non-privileged user. root is a privileged.

You have to install the program first and then run it from where you installed it to.

Not sure what you meant by non-priviliged user, but I tried again
to run hwsoliii.exe after removing .wine. To try and run it, I clicked
the icon on the desktop, and in a terminal, as user, I cd to the
desktop, and then typed wine hwsoliii.exe. Both these tries gave the
same error message attached.
Where are the user files that I should remove? All I did was remove
the .wine and the .exe file which I had in several places. Now it's just
on the desktop. Tks. Guess this will work eventually. :-) Bob

It is not necessary to remove Wine, just the User files. Wine is usually installed as root with the ability to run the executables as a non-privileged user. Are you having problems doing this?
