Default DAW tweaks for Wine

If in Reaper you have assigned any paths to "Windows\Temp" or similar, you can instead re-route those to \tmp instead so that Linux will empty the tempporary folder on next boot. Here's how:

If anybody is using Windows programs in Wine there are some freeware tools which will help you to manage the settings in Windows that you couldn't otherwise get to:

Rapid Environment Editor: This lets you edit system variable such as the TMP folder path. Use this to change temporary folder path from C:\Windows\Temp to Linux's \tmp ...also do the same thing for the user temp folder. That way the temp files will be delete on reboot instead of accumulating unchecked.

Various tools here: (CleanAfterMe, USBdeView, MyUnInst, File Types Manager)

AutoRuns: (disable or change various Windows services or drivers or triggers or codecs)

There you go. Those will help you to configure your Wine Windows stuff as you would on a true Windows system.
Just be sure that you don't disable anything essentially needed for Windows or Wine.
The other programs listed can possibly help with tweaking the "Windows" DAW settings as you would do if you were running a true Windows machine.
