           Summary: Enhancement - run wineprefixcreate on missing registry
                    files
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.30.
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-files
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: a.hurst at shef.ac.uk


In order to get wine to rebuild your registry (after corruption, or if you
simply want a clean out-of-the-box registry) one currently has to delete the
entire ~/.wine/ directory.  This gets rid of all your drive mappings, and
requires you to  backup your 'drive_c' if stored here.

Instead couldn't wine simply run wineprefixcreate, or some component of this,
when unable to find ~/.wine/user.reg etc. Thus replacing a deleted registry file
with a fresh one.
