Other then the Wine-wow64 argument. Is it possible to point to Kindle Previewer installed in a Wine custom $WINEPREFIX?

From my previous tests I see that the plugin looks for the 'Exception('Wine registry file /home/steakhutzeee/.wine/user.reg' file. I'm new to Wine so don't know if this file is unique or if it's present in any WINEPREFIX.

EDIT: Yes it looks that any WINEPREFIX has its user.reg file. From https://wiki.winehq.org/Bottling_Standards I can see:

Quote:
Winetrick's current approach is a good foundation. Every prefix includes a file named wrapper.cfg (at the top-level of a prefix next to user.reg), which stores the prefix's longer title. Then whenever a new verb is installed in a prefix, metadata specific to the verb is registered in a new file, according to the convention current_prefix/verb_category/verb_name.vars
Maybe an option could be added to the plugin to specify the WINEPREFIX dir? And if left unspecified it will use the default in /home/user/.wine?

Thanks!
