How to run an .exe file from a different wineprefix?

Question

Wine

I installed the game in a separate prefix with separate libraries, but when I run the executable, it starts in the usual prefix without libraries. How to make it run in a different prefix?

Answer 1

WINEPREFIX=/other/wineprefix wine ./file.exe
With this syntax, the overridden WINEPREFIX variable will only apply to this one call to wine. To act within the current session, you need to do
export WINEPREFIX=/other/wineprefix
If you need it permanently, add this to .bash_profile
