Hi,
if Corel WPO was installed by a .msi file (I don't know), then the
uninstaller does not work. This is a known issue.
And to your special problem: uninstalling wine does not remove the
~/.wine directory, and not the wine parts in
~/.local/share/applications! That's the red wine stain :-)
Kind regards
