If you uninstall it in WINE, then reintall it is it ok?

What version are you running, seems to be a wide range of results of running Quicken in WINE:

No still does not work and it is the 1.6 version of Wine ! . . It worked day before the update but stopped working after and I got system error and sending error report ! . . Oh yeah in sudo/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup I got no such directory no such file . . That is why I upgraded to Virtual Box 5.0 and deleted the 4.3 version

Aww Geez another update . . This time Wine works but Virtual Box does not and I get bash: sudo/etc/init.d/vboxdrv: No such file or directory
WTF gives ? just got done re installing Virtual Box 5.0 and added DKMS to the mix with Synaptic Package Manager . .

"sudo/etc/init.d/vboxdrv" is wrong, there is a space character missing.
it has to be
sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv
