I've been trying to make a new wine prefix on my external ssd but now I noticed it gives me a lot of errors like this:
Code: Select all
0040:err:setupapi:create_dest_file failed to create L"C:\\windows\\system32\\winedevice.exe" (error=3)
However as far as I can tell there shouldn't be any file permissions issues. Also, it does create some files but not a lot of them which is weird.

What file system does the external hard drive have?
You can find this (with the disk connected) with:
Code: Select all
mount
# Example output

/dev/sdb1 on /media/kyo type ext4 ...
