I got this message:

wine: WINEARCH set to win32 but '/home/me/.wine' is a 64-bit installation.

What do I have to do?

Suggest you follow https://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#How_do_I_create_a_32_bit_wineprefix_on_a_64_bit_system.3F and create a 32bit wineprefix by opening a terminal window and running WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=path_to_wineprefix winecfg

    This didn't work for me, I got the same error when running this command, even without an existing directory.

Type in terminal; WINEARCH=win64; wine /home/me/.wine/whateverprogram.exe OR echo "export WINEPREFIX=~/home/me/.wine" >> ~/.bashrc echo "export WINEARCH=win64" >> ~/.bashrc reboot
