Can WINE-2.0 be setup to run in addition to a current WINE setup in case things don’t work out immediately?

install systemback- take a snapshot of your system, install the wine 2.0- if it doesn’t work, revert to before you installed it- easy peasy- but of course you’ll need to learn how to install systemback- it’s not too difficult- there are instructions online-

Linux users- I highly recommend systemback as a snapshot backup program AND as a system backup which can create an .ISO of your current system and restore incase anythign ever goes wrong (although this system restore option is a little tricky- i can confirm it works very well- and the system backup was actually pretty quick- under 45 minutes if I remember right- It was super nice reinstalling it from the ISO and havign all my settings already how i liked em- and programs, etc- but be aware, the process for a whole system backup to .ISO is a bit tricky- and convoluted- but doable-)
