[SOLVED]Messed up wine completely[SOLVED]

So I had multiple wine versions installed, so I completely lost my track of it. When I wanted to install a new wineversion it would still use the old one. So I made a sudo locate -i and deleted all wine folders. Shouldn't have done that. Everything is completely messed up. When I wanted to reinstall wine and run wincfg it said ntdl.dll.so not found in /usr/local/lib/wine. So I made symlinks for all the files wine said it doesn't found. So my problem now is:

winecfg
wine: failed to update /home/michel/.wine with /usr/local/bin/../share/wine/wine.inf: No such file or directory

winecfg does start but what is this error? It doesn't even show the whole path where the file should be located. I just want to reset everything so that I can install wine normally again and that everything works without the need of placing symlinks manually but how can I solve this?

You can uninstall all wine packages, remove all leftover files and reinstall wine packages again.
How exactly do you install various wine versions?

Well that was exactly what I tried to do.

By building from source also I installed some wine-staging package from the aur.

Didn't see that I didn't mark this as solved. I just didn't remove all wine files *facepalm*.
