Remove Entries of previously installed windows with wine

Question

In my previous version, in Natty I think, I installed MS Office and some other windows software via wine. They have cluttered a lot of places including the Open with and other mime related operations. Is there a way to purge them and remove all wine based entries that now I have no wine program installed?

I want, if possible to purge all entries that have to do with wine. I installed/uninstalled them using wine. Purging wine does not help

TIA

Answer 1

How do I uninstall all Windows applications?

To remove all programs installed under Wine, remove the wineprefix (usually the ~/.wine directory) by carefully pasting the following commands into a terminal:

cd $HOME
rm -rf .wine

But that doesn't remove them from the system menu. To clean out the menus, carefully paste the following commands into a terminal:

rm -f $HOME/.config/menus/applications-merged/wine*
rm -rf $HOME/.local/share/applications/wine
rm -f $HOME/.local/share/desktop-directories/wine*
rm -f $HOME/.local/share/icons/????_.{xpm,png}
rm -f $HOME/.local/share/icons/-x-wine-*.{xpm,png}

After all that right click on the top panel asd select edit menus

then go to the others tab and delete all the microsoft office launchers
(Or they might be in some other location, just search)
