Wine Latest Install After Older Version Ruins Thigs Up!

[0x00FE]

I've had an old version of "Wine", to upgrade to the latest version I've decided to follow the steps on the following page "http://www.winehq.org/download/deb"

I thought for a moment that this would by default replace the old version, I so didn't uninstall the existing one.

After the installation I can run applications with "Wine" but I cannot configure it.

I've tried to uninstall everything & deleted the "/home/user/.wine" directory

still same problem.
I've consulted a friend of mine to help me with the issue, he suggested I access the configuration through command line.

xirex@xirex-desktop-linux:~$ wineconfig
Note: wineprefixcreate is deprecated and shouldn't be needed anymore.
   WINEPREFIX creation and updates now happen automatically when needed.

I can clearly see other wine (Folders or settings), but I wouldn't really delete anything there, so I'll wait for advice.
