WineGUI vs WineZGUI

WineGUI is a graphical Linux manager for Wine, the compatibility layer used to run Windows applications. A guided setup creates machines that users can edit, remove, or clone. For each machine, WineGUI can download and switch among Vanilla, Staging, Staging-TkG, Wine-Proton, and GE-Proton runners. It lists applications with search and can add desktop or menu shortcuts. The configuration window can install software such as DirectX and DXVK, while quick actions run a program, open the C: drive, simulate a reboot, or stop all processes. WineGUI also manages GE-Proton through a UMU launcher, including Proton initialization and protonfixes, without requiring Steam. GE-Proton is available for win64/WoW64 bottles; a true 32-bit bottle requires a regular Wine runner. Packages include AppImage, DEB, RPM, compressed tar.gz binaries, and a source archive. The host needs Wine v9 or later, which the AppImage does not include. The repository is licensed under AGPL-3.0 and provides issue tracking and contribution instructions on GitHub.
