Lutris/Wine reset

Hi everyone,
I'm running into some issues using Lutris, and I'd like resetting everything up to the initial config. Is there a proper way to uninstall them both and then reinstalling them?

I was facing a general error while trying to install League of Legends:

Exit with return code 256

I was reading that this could be anything, so it was preferable to reinstall everything.

I've tried with:

sudo rm -rf /var/lib/lutris
sudo rm -rf /var/lutris
sudo rm -rf /lutris
rm -rf ~/.config/lutris
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/wine
sudo rm -rf /var/wine
sudo rm -rf /wine
rm -rf ~/.config/wine
rm -rf ~/.wine
rm -rf ~/.lutris
sudo apt purge wine
sudo apt purge winetricks
sudo apt purge lutris
sudo apt autoremove
sudo apt install wine
sudo apt install winetricks
sudo apt install lutris
winecfg

This however has installed wine 6 (I previously had wine 8) and now I'm not even able to install the Epic Games launcher.

Additional info: I cannot even run games on Steam, they just hang on starting up.

Editing to add some context:

I have firstly noticed that this was the error:

Start monitoring process.
00bc:err:esync:esync_init Failed to open esync shared memory file; make sure no stale wineserver instances are running without WINEESYNC.
Monitored process exited.
Initial process has exited (return code: 256)

So I did disable ESYNC on Wine runner (via Lutris, after the whole reinstallation).

Then I had this error:

00c0:err:environ:run_wineboot boot event wait timed out
wine: could not load kernel32.dll, status c0000135

So I have removed .wine/ and I'm now getting:

Start monitoring process.

And I'm still there.

Hi, this:

ll ~ | grep .wine|.lutris

is resulting in:

.lutris: comando non trovato (command not found)

While:

ll ~/.config | grep wine|lutris

is just opening Lutris.

How should I proceed?

It might sound strange, but even ls is opening Lutris for some reason....

Just to be sure I've checked for ll alias and it seems to be pretty standard
alias ll='ls -alF'

It might be something with the pipe itself. By just greping wine or lutris it's performing a normal search.... weird thing

Ooooh I got the point, it was piping into lutris command. Heh!

I will try with wine 8 and will let you know

No luck, I think..

2023-10-11 22:46:41,238: Wine prefix creation is taking longer than expected...

Still stuck

It seems the directory where Wine is trying to add the prefix (WINEARCH=win64 WINEPREFIX=/home/bl4ckk/Games/epic-games-store) is getting deleted.
I tried creating it manually before running the installer, but it gets deleted as soon as I press the install button. Then it stays stuck.

Wait, it's not EA but Epic Games. Anyway as shown above it did create the folder after a long time, but it gave the wine version error.

Well, I think it will just be quicker to take a backup and reinstall Zorin from scratch..

Well, it worked. I have just installed timeshift (nobody knows what can happen next) and epic games installation went successfully. I was also able to install League of Legends, which previously, I wasn't.
The actual wine version: wine-6.0.3
