Created the .wine-new folder, now how do I install programs?

[commandrix]

Whenever I want to install a program in the .wine-new folder, the system either tells me that C:\\windows\\system32\\install.exe does not exist, or tries to redirect me back to the old .wine folder. Can someone tell me how to redirect installations to the .wine-new folder?

The same way you created it: by specifying the WINEPREFIX in the command line, e.g.,

Code: Select all

WINEPREFIX=/path/to/wineprefix wine /path/to/installer.exe

(use the actual paths)
