Just installed/used wine for first time ever.
The Wine version in Debian Stable is very old and unsupported. You should use the WineHQ packages or use the version from Backports
I attempted to run an installer which asks a typical set of questions to which I chose the defaults. It is setup to run a demo on completion. The demo appears to run correctly. I ran the same installer on a WinXP machine which appears to run identically. I have two problems. On exiting the installer nothing has actually been written to disk
Wine uses a hidden folder ~/.wine as it default location. Did you check that location?
Second, early in the question asking phase, a message appears on my console:$ err:trash:TRASH_MoveFileToBucket Couldn't move fileThat is the message that prompted this post. What is it trying to say? Is there a catalog of Wine error messages (didn't find one)?
In Wine version 3.12 there isn't such message.You could read the FAQ, the manual and the forum on winehq.org if you look for error messages.
