I have downloaded a bad version of wine and so my applications no longer work. I am finding it hard to locate all the programs that I downloaded using it and thought that it would be easier to just wipe my system and start again. Is there a simple way of doing this?

I don't have a disc drive so if there is an option to do this from USB that would be great.

Thanks for any help

  • @the_Seppi I have edited to ask if there is an option that doesn't include a cd drive – hmmmm Sep 23 '14 at 20:11
  • Just use the live USB instead then... – Tim Sep 23 '14 at 20:14
  • Just delete the c directory for wine and reinstall wine. Put more information about your problem if that does not work please. – nixeagle Sep 23 '14 at 20:18
  • @Tim It's just a bunch files, is there one that I should run or anything? – hmmmm Sep 23 '14 at 20:57
  • Restart and set the bios to boot from usb. – Tim Sep 23 '14 at 20:58
  • @Tim How do I set the BIOS in Ubuntu? – hmmmm Sep 23 '14 at 21:00
  • Just the same as windows - how did you first install with cd? Restart, open bios with either del or F2 or F12 (it will say when it boots up). Then chose under boot order to boot with USB or removable media. – Tim Sep 23 '14 at 21:07
  • @Tim I installed it from USB but from windows 8 you have to change the BIOS in the setting. It just boots straight up to Ubuntu now as I don't have windows anymore. – hmmmm Sep 23 '14 at 21:12
  • Trust me, the BIOS is still there... Ubuntu doesn't remove bios. – Tim Sep 24 '14 at 14:40
  • @Tim I wasn't saying that it had removed anything just that I don't know how to access them to change my boot options so as to boot from a USB. The screen where you would open the BIOS when booting up is no longer there, it wasn't there when I had windows 8 either you had to go into some settings to get to it. – hmmmm Sep 25 '14 at 15:13
  • Try using Del or F2 or F8 or F12 while it boots... – Tim Sep 25 '14 at 16:02
