That's you who can't read. I will repeat again: "~/.wine/dosdevices/c: points to what windows programs will see as a "c:" drive." Please read it again (if that's what it takes). Then thing about "what does c: drive or any other drive means on windows". The rest of your Linux file system, is like "unpartitioned" space for windows programs. Can install a program on windows to unpartitioned space (or partition that is not assigned a drive or reparse point)? Vitaliy
