Actually you do not need winetricks for this application. Do the following:
- rm -rf .wine
- wine <installer.exe> (cd-ing where it's located)
- on failure installer message just do 'wineserver -k' in separate terminal
session
- wine <app.exe> (cd-ing to app dir).

This works for me.

This is unsupported of course. Simple moving directory could produce
unpredictable failures.

If it's 24 hours online post me VNC parameters directly.
