You're probably using a real Windows drive as your c: drive, yes? If so
then well, that's not really recommended, but if it works for you ok ...
you can just ignore this message normally.

We "fixed" this in the latest Wine. As the name fixme implies it's just a
reminder to the developers to fix something. Actually in this case we
can't fix it, it's just InstallShield sucking, so we removed the message.
It's not useful for end users anyway. You can safely ignore it.

Again, it's just a reminder to us to fix something. You can ignore this
just fine.

Try this:

killall -9 wine-preloader wine-pthread wine-kthread
wineserver -k
rm -rf ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/InstallShield

Then try running it again. I've been doing some debugging on InstallShield
installers lately, that message almost always means "help I died in the
middle of an install last time". Blowing the crud InstallShield dumps on
the system tends to help.

Good luck!
