In Windows, applications are installed into Program Files folder by default. I have recently installed MS Office using Wine.

Where are apps installed with Wine? Can I decide in which folder should they be installed?

Wine has a root directory .wine in your home directory. The windows-drive letters (e.g.: C: D: ..) can be mapped with the winecfg program. Depending on what drive letter you installed MS office you find the files somewhere under the .wine directory.

most commonly your installation is in ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)...
