--- Comment #1 from Olivier F. R. Dierick <o.dierick at piezo-forte.be> ---
!!!Always make backups of data you don't want to loose!!!

Hello,

Simple answer: No. This is outside of the Wine project.

The project goal is to provide a Windows environment as close as the real thing
as possible, and all development effort goes to mimicking the Windows base OS,
working around and overcoming Windows to Linux/MacOS differences, using real
use case of Windows applications as a base.

Considering the myriads of possible container formats, the efforts it would
take to maintain them and the limited resources of the Wine project, WineHQ.org
only provides standard packages for the major distributions.

About Flatpak container format. See bug 47000.

About implementing some kind of run-time sand-boxing mechanism inside wine
itself, see bug 49701.

About virus concerns, see bug 11421.

!!!Always make backups of data you don't want to loose!!!

Regards.
