wineboot(1)

NAME

wineboot - perform startup or shutdown tasks in your wine(1) environment.

SYNOPSIS

wineboot [ OPTIONS ]

DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the wineboot command.

wineboot performs tasks that would be done on a real Windows environment, like restarting or shutting down the system. It's useful for example if a software installation program asks you to reboot your computer to finish the installation process.

wineboot also updates the WINEPREFIX directory if wine.inf changes.
