adys@azura:~$ WINEPREFIX=/home/adys/new winetricks sandbox
------------------------------------------------------
wine cmd.exe /c echo '%ProgramFiles%' returned unexpanded string... do you own 
the parent of /home/adys/new ?

(the answer is yes)

Something's wrong with your wineprefix, it seems.  What *does*

wine cmd.exe /c echo '%ProgramFiles%'

output?

adys@azura:~/new/drive_c$ WINEPREFIX=~/new/ wine cmd.exe /c echo 
'%ProgramFiles%'
%ProgramFiles%                                                                  

Seems to be due to a wineboot crash, the prefix is dirty. Nevermind.

The warning needs to mention that possibility, too.
