Thanks for the quick reply. I read the faq as follow 


> Wine does not currently allow sharing its configuration ("prefixes") between users, due to the risk of registry corruption from running multiple wineservers simultaneously (bug #11112). At present, applications must be installed separately for each user.
> However, you can copy Wine prefixes; you can install everything to one prefix, then make a copy of it in each user's home directory. This saves running installers repeatedly.


What is exactly wine prefixes? is it the .wine folder?

Thanks a lot!
