Ticket System5.2. Managing Bottles
The Manage Bottles tab allows you to create, delete, and modify the bottles in your CrossOver install. For the most part, the CrossOver Installation Wizard will take care of creating appropriate bottles, but this tab provides more direct control.
Configure. This button will launch the bottle configuration dialog for the selected bottle.
Create new bottle. This button creates a new bottle. You will have an opportunity to choose which Windows mode the bottle will emulate.
Delete. This button will delete the selected bottle. This will remove all applications, settings, and documents that are inside this bottle's directory.
Rename. This button allows you to change the name of the selected bottle. The contents of the bottle will remain unchanged.
Copy. The copy button allows you to create a duplicate of an existing bottle. The duplicate will contain the same applications and settings as the original.
Make default. This button changes the selected bottle to the CrossOver default bottle. The default bottle handles system .exe associations and is used when running Wine tools from the command-line.
Archive. The archive button creates a compressed archive of the selected bottle. It is often prudent to make a backup archive of a bottle before installing new software or modifying bottle settings. Archives can be restored using the Restore archived bottle button.
Create RPM. CrossOver Linux Server supports the creation of bottle RPMs which can be used as backups or installed on other systems. More information about bottle RPMs can be found in the Creating an RPM from a bottle chapter.
Restore archived bottle. This button will allow you to choose and restore a bottle archive created with the Archive button. The restored bottle will be replaced in your bottle list, and the files copied into your bottle directory.
