How to replace dotnet40 with dotnet45?

Question

I'm trying to install dotnet40 via winetricks, but I've got the following error:

$ winetricks dotnet45
Executing w_do_call dotnet45
------------------------------------------------------
error: dotnet45 conflicts with dotnet40, which is already installed.
------------------------------------------------------

How do I remove dotnet40 in order to install dotnet45 package?

I'm using wine-2.0.4 on macOS.

Potentially a helpful link that may be related and point you to other links: https://github.com/Winetricks/winetricks/issues/734 you may need to install manually but I only did very little reading. — Vomit IT - Chunky Mess Style, Jan 15 '18 at 19:18

You can try running the wine built-in Uninstaller program. Issue from the command prompt:

$ wine uninstaller

See: https://wiki.winehq.org/Uninstaller

For me, after uninstalling from wine, still had issues with installing dotnet452. This command run in the linux terminal worked for me:

winetricks --force dotnet452

Start with a clean wineprefix:

$ WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine32 winecfg

Then install dot45 on the new wineprefix

$ env WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine32 winetricks dotnet45
