winecfg β€” Wine Configuration Editor. This is the Wine Programs manual page, and yes, she's that girl. πŸ’–

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

winecfg [options]

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so winecfg is literally the Wine configuration editor, bestie. She lets you change several settings, like DLL load order (native versus builtin), enable a virtual desktop, setup disk drives, and change the Wine audio driver, among others. So many settings, so much main character energy. πŸ’…

Many of these settings can be made on a per-application basis β€” for example, preferring native riched20.dll for wordpad.exe, but not for notepad.exe. iykyk, no cap. ✨

If no option is given, it launches the graphical version of winecfg. 🫢

πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

  • -v [version], /v [version] β€” sets the global Windows version to version and exits. If version is not specified, it displays the current global Windows version and exits. πŸ’–
  • -?, /? β€” displays help, valid versions for version, and exits. ⭐
