How to uninstall a particular dll from winetricks?

  • 772

Have Googled for this but couldn't find a way to re-install riched20.dll I installed to install a Windows application (I don't remember the application) some days ago.

Is there anyway(command-line or via the GUI) to remove and/or re-install dll's installed in winetricks?

Specifications:

  • Ubuntu 12.10

  • winetrics 20120912

wine

  1. I did the following in winetricks when I loaded a DLL that broke a game:

    1. Select the default wine prefix
    2. Click Change Settings
    3. Check the box alldlls=default then click OK
    4. Reinstall DLLs as necessary

    This got me back up and running.

  2. Just delete from wine folder the riched20.dll then add again via winetricks.

    rm ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/riched20.dll

  3. I found a way to at least disable a DLL. Open winecfg and go to Libraries. The DLLs installed by winetricks seem to have an asterisk (*) before their name, find the DLL you want to remove and change it to 'builtin' or remove it from the list.
