Can I do something like a fresh install? I don’t care about losing data/ games.

So it’s the components of Wine that produces its fabled compatibility layer?
It creates an arborescence that contains the necessary library for you application to work with a thick layer of magic on top of that to make it all work. This is were my understanding is at at least

I don’t know what an arborescence is.
There’s another comment that explains it in more details than me but it’s a hierarchy of files your C://user/you/appdata…etc and since it branches into multiple choices you can call it an arborescence if you will.
