No no no. You not getting the whole concept. WINEPREFIX is for Wine ONLY. It has no meaning nor will it even have a meaning on windows!

Wine is to run windows applications. Because windows applications need some windows environment - Wine has WINEPREFIX to simulate that environment. The major two parts of it are a) c: drive structure (files, directories) b) registry. Neither interchangeable with windows.
