             Bug #: 29740
           Summary: wine gecko failed to get the profile directory
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.4-rc1
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: shell32
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org
        ReportedBy: wine.dev(a)web.de
    Classification: Unclassified


Starting Wine gecko flood the console with:
0009:err:mshtml:create_profile_directory SHGetFolderPath failed: 80070002
and previous present settings are lost.

Similar failures are present in all user installed apps


Reason is the removeal of the translation of the shell folders.

Path present:
 C:\users\<username>\Anwendungsdaten
New Path searched for:
 C:\users\<username>\AppData

a workaround is: ln -s Anwendungsdaten AppData

Repeat that for the other folder names.
