Moving wine folder to new computer

Post by finotti »

I am about to build a new computer and need to move my Wine folder, with many, many plugins.

Is there anything to be careful with this process, or after installing Wine and yabridge and assigning the corresponding folder (and syncing yabridge) the plugins will just be found and recognized?

Also, will I need to register all the plugins again, or will it be considered as running on the same "Windows computer" as in my previous computer/installation?

It's my first time trying this, and I am trying to get ahead of it as much as I can. Any info and insight would be greatly appreciated!

You'll likely have to run winecfg to start then resync using yabridge.
