I have been trying to install Internet Explorer 8 via Winetricks on the default wine-prefix
but I'm getting an error after the unpack process, saying my configuration is 64-bits
and Internet Explorer 8 doesn't support it.
My question is, can I change the wine-prefix
configuration? Since I have a game installed on it that the update took a really long time. I also tried using POL installed via software center and I get same error
I am using Xubuntu 12.10, and wine 1.6RC
.

To do it without PlayOnLinux (or POL for short) using normal Wine you should first, after doing a backup of anything you have installed inside the Wine folder (.wine):
This will start from scratch and set your Wine environment to 32 Bit. After opening
winecfg
, it will create the needed files and variables for the environment so you can install or copy anything you need to it again and it will work as 32 bit.
