You can still run programs from the temp directory, you just can't
have your wineprefix be there (if you run $ sudo wineprefixcreate, it
allows an exception).

You can still do this, just make a directory somewhere, and navigate
to it from Z:. This prevents the wineprefix from being in a root owned
directory, not accessing files where the user has permission.
