### Errors with the Wine prefix of a specific game
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The last ressort for fixing problems that are related to the wine prefix of a
|
||||||
|
game is to delete the Wine prefix.
|
||||||
|
For this the id of the steam game first has to be known.
|
||||||
|
This is done by navigating to the steam website or the community page of the
|
||||||
|
specific game.
|
||||||
|
The URLs will have one of the following forms where the game id can be read:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
http://steamcommunity.com/app/<game id>/
|
||||||
|
http://store.steampowered.com/app/<game id>/
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
After that navigate to the place your steam games are stored.
|
||||||
|
You can remove `<steam location>/steamapps/compatdata/<game id>` to reset the
|
||||||
|
Wine prefix completely.
|
||||||
|
It is recommended to keep a backup of the folder containing the old Wine prefix
|
||||||
|
as it stores game saves and other important data, that can be useful.
