The last time I used it i used wineprefixcreate to make different “drives” for the various applications/games I installed so eventuel ekstra dll files etc. did’nt got mixed together.
To install I used WINEPREFIX=/home/xxxx/TotalCommander wine setup.exe
When I try to do this with the recent versions of WINE I am tolded by the program that it is not necessary anymore and that the program will figure it out.
I have great confidence in the WINE team but I would still like to have the programs in different drives. It makes it a bit easier to clean up if a install goes wrong.
I can’t seem to find info in the documentation on how to do it. I am tolded to use wine.cfg but it has - as far I can see - not the function I need.

Hi
Do you mean the program winecfg? Have a look at wineboot, this can
update the prefix directory.
