[Wine] Re: moving or renaming .wine folder after installations

[alfredo]

vitamin,
i agree with you but i have the following problem:
I have installed MS-Trainsimulator in /home/db/.wine-t1. Now I want to move due space requirements and for reorganisation the .wine-t1 to /opt. OK, so far. The links in dosdevices are relative! Starting the program from the new location gives me .... train simulator has a problem ....
After some checks i found files with the extension .lnk in drive_c/windows/profiles/All Users/Desktop/Train Simulator.lnk
Inside this files are entries like db (the linux home dir) and .wine-t1 (the wine dir). These files are not from winecreateprefix or winecfg. They came from the trainsimulator-install program. I have made some tests with special dir like wine-d1 and wine-d2. After moving and patching 1 to 2 in the .lnk files i can restart the simulation in the renamed dir. But this was only a simple test because i only change one character! And the .lnk files are binary...
I don't understand why a windows programs can get information about absolute pathes in linux - they should stay in the world of C:!
Someone was calling Train Simulator.lnk at startup of the simulation and interpretes the linux path information, not only windows-path.

Regards,
Alfredo
