Don’t get scared if you see something like this, cause we found a solution for it. We tried to search the whole internet for its solution, finally figure it out. Here are the steps for troubleshooting.

Method 1:

  • Open Home folder, from view option click on “Show hidden files”.
  • Now you will see a folder name .wine
  • Rename the folder as .wine old
  • Doing this will force wine to create a new prefix again.
  • Now, go to the mt4 installed directory & run the uninstaller.exe to uninstall it.
  • Delete the files mt4 files from the directory & desktop shortcut.
  • Now, finally reinstall the mt4 again & run it.
