Description

When Wine creates a prefix ("virtual drive"), it uses symlinks to make several user special paths (My Documents, My Pictures, etc.) point to closest equivalent Linux directory.

This is fine to allow Windows applications to manipulate user files seamlessly, but can also be annoying (game saves "escaping" the game virtual drive, and littering your Linux directories with files and directories.

This function replace all the virtual drive's symlinks with plain directories, so that everything in C: drive is stored inside the virtual drive directories.

Create an hidden empty file in the private directories so they aren't reverted with next Wine version changes (https://www.playonlinux.com/en/topic-13310.html)
