I've recently installed Wine on my Ubuntu 14.04. When I'm trying to patch a game I get the following error:
Please run the patching program again with full administrative rights!
So I tried to run it this way:
sudo wine Patch.exe
But I get an error:
wine: /home/myusername/.wine is not owned by you
I tried sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /home/myusername/.wine
but the error still appears.
Please do not tell me that I should not run Wine programs as sudo!
Can someone help me with a solution? Thanks.
ls -al /home/myusername/.wine

. That is almost certainly why you're getting the error. There's no reason to and you're running asroot
who doesn't own/home/myusername/.wine
. Just don't usesudo
