I have tried a lot of different commands, but nothing helped.

    sudo apt-get remove wine --purge
    sudo apt-get --purge remove wine
    sudo apt-get auto remove

Wine is still available. Wine version is wine-1.7.34. Please help, how can I remove wine completely including installed windows programs and winetricks.

For me, wine was installed as multiple packages with different versions - for example wine1.4 or wine1.4-i386.

To remove all of them, I simply typed sudo apt-get purge wine and then pressed TAB to display all installed packages with name starting with 'wine' and removed all of them. Of course, sudo apt-get autoremove was necessary at the end to clean unneeded pacakges.

Note: Be careful with sudo apt-get purge wine*, it can remove more than you really want! - see this question for more info.

Try this :

sudo apt-get purge wine*

This will remove every single package related to wine. This is probably because there are more than one package for wine in the repositories.

Ok，I think you should make sure to install it by using apt-get install wine rather than other ways. So I think you can remove wine by your comman, if you used apt-get install wine command to install it.

Go to the Dash board (the topmost icon). Type in 'wine' in the search box. Then with the wine application; 'uninstall wine' will also pop up. Just click on it, and follow the process!
