Wine cofiguration, winetricks run without an interface

[biffofolop]

Hi,

I have installed a windows game using wine and everything was fine, however when I came to pay the game it didn't launch properly. I assumed this was because of graphics settings so I tweaked a few options on the wine configuration software (I can't remember what exactly) and tried again. This time when I launched it, my cursor changed to the loading cursor for about 10 seconds then nothing happened. I tried going back on to the configurator and it did the same thing. I then tried to go on winetricks and that also just loaded but the interface didn't pop up. I ran the system monitor to see if the programs were running and they were but I just don't know how to find them. I'm not bothered about playing the game anymore but I would like to uninstall it, however, the wine software uninstaller also shows no interface so I'm not sure how. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling wine and it has made no difference.

Has anyone encountered this before? I would appreciate any help you could offer, thanks in advance.

I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 if that means anything.

If you would like to erase all Windows applications you have installed in your default Wine prefix, just delete ~/.wine (for example, by running "rm -rf ~/.wine" in the console). Alternatively, if you still have something useful in it, you can rename ~/.wine (by running "mv ~/.wine ~/.wine_old"). If you do not know what Wine prefix is, you may want to read the FAQ: http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#wineprefix .
