Summary: Rose Online refuses to uninstall, reinstalls itself when using Uninstaller, has trojan Product: Wine Version: 1.3.6 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: ssjgokux3@gmail.com
I installed Rose Online to help with another bug reported on this site. I have tried to uninstall it countless times and the uninstaller says that it uninstalled the software but when I looked in the .wine directory on my hard-disk, the "Gravity" directory, which contains Rose Online, was still there. So I manually deleted the Gravity (SHIFT+DEL) directory and then proceeded to go to the "Uninstall Wine Software" app to remove Rose Online. The Rose Online install was still in the list, as expected, so I proceeded with the uninstaller again, which takes a long time to start by the way. After the uninstall completed, I looked back at the list and Rose Online was still there. I then went back to the .wine folder and the program had actually reinstalled itself so I had then deleted the directory the same way again. Before deleting it however, I scanned my laptop with KlamAV and it told me that there was a Trojan in the Rose Online directory.
Rose Online STILL will not remove itself from my machine. Help would be appreciated. Any ideas besides completely removing Wine?

The most reliable way to remove software installed by wine is to remove all of it at once by removing the entire .wine directory (after saving any important data). You don't have to uninstall Wine itself.

BTW, where did you get your copy of Rose Online? Was it from the official site?

Is this still an issue in 1.6-rc2 or higher or is this abandoned ?
