How to Remove/Uninstall Wine from Ubuntu LTS Completely

When you want to completely remove or Uninstall Wine from Ubuntu you run commands but it's files and folders still there so what we have to do.

Hey guys! Welcome to TMP, I will show you my personal experience about Uninstall or Remove wine.

Step 1:
Use Winetricks

We will Install Winetricks from Ubuntu software center.
Because there are many options in Winetricks like Task Manager, Uninstaller, Running process etc..

Open Winetricks and select an option maybe already marked,

• Select the default wineprefix 

Click ok
Now you can see another list, mark the last option called:

• Delete ALL DATA AND APPLICATIONS INSIDE THIS WINEPREFIX

Click ok
It will ask you again to delete wine directory and its apps icons, and menu items?

Click yes
Winetricks closed automatically and .wine folder removed from home directory.

Step 2:
Use Terminal
Now open terminal and run these commands,

• sudo apt-get remove --autoremove wine-stable wine-stable-amd64

It will ask you to continue in terminal press y and hit Enter,
after complete its process run these 3 more commands,

• sudo apt-get update
• sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get autoclean
• sudo apt-get remove && sudo apt-get autoremove

After complete removing process check the wine version.

• wine --version

If Its display in terminal,

Command 'wine' not found, but can be installed with:

It means wine removed successfully.
