In Windows, applications are installed into Program Files
folder by default. I have recently installed MS Office using Wine.
Where are apps installed with Wine? Can I decide in which folder should they be installed?

Wine has a root directory .wine
in your home directory.
The windows-drive letters (e.g.: C:
D:
..) can be mapped with the winecfg
program.
Depending on what drive letter you installed MS office you find the files somewhere under the .wine
directory.
most commonly your installation is in ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)...
The Program Files
folder are in /home/YOUR USERNAME/.wine/
if the setup program of a application allows you to choose a different folder then u can
.exe
to run when we actually want to use the app?
