--- Comment #1 from Fabian Maurer  ---
wine 1.8.3 is way too old and unsupported, please retry with wine-3.2.
Also, winebottler is not supported either.

--- Comment #2 from Anastasius Focht  ---
Hello folks,

there were multiple reports for ".. '%ProgramFiles%' returned empty string" in
WineHQ user forums and 'winetricks' bug tracker.
All of them turned out to be users not having their Wine environment properly
set up.

https://github.com/Winetricks/winetricks/issues/163

Resolving 'INVALID' here and also refining summary.

Regards
