--- Comment #14 from Stephan Sokolow from_wine_bugzilla@ssokolow.com 2009-02-10 01:21:16 --- Ugh. I'll just stick with deleting all Wine menu entries on a cronjob until I can get the hang of using the libraries tab as Alexandre suggested. Then I'll add a `regedit disable_menus.reg` line to my wrapper. (Least hassle)
Running uninstallers is not a suitable option because it takes too long, there's no guarantee that the uninstallers have an unattended mode, there's no guarantee that the invocation method for the uninstallers' unattended mode will be consistent, and even then, I still find it irritating that Windows applications can clutter up my otherwise beautifully organized search-based launcher with their 5+ icons per application.
