            Bug ID: 54721
           Summary: load_wow64_ntdll failed to load
                    L"\\??\\C:\\windows\\syswow64\\ntdll.dll" error
           Product: Wine
           Version: 8.4
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: ntdll

Created attachment 74227
  --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=74227
output of "/opt/wine-devel/bin/wine64 7z2201.exe" command

Background: I ran these commands on my Debian VM

sudo mkdir -pm755 /etc/apt/keyrings
sudo wget -O /etc/apt/keyrings/winehq-archive.key
https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/winehq.key
sudo wget -NP /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/debian/dists/bullseye/winehq-bullseye.sour...
sudo apt update
filename=$(apt-get download wine-devel --print-uris | awk '{print $2}')
version=$(apt-get download wine-devel | awk '{print $7; exit}')
dpkg-deb -R $filename requires32/
sed -i "s/, wine-devel-i386 (= $version)//g" requires32/DEBIAN/control
dpkg-deb -b requires32/ wine64.deb
sudo apt install ./wine64.deb -y


I wanted to try to run a x86 32-bit app (I picked 7-Zip) with wine64 with the
WOW64 experimental feature so I ran "/opt/wine-devel/bin/wine64 7z2201.exe" and
it gives the error message in the attachment


Below is the output of "ls -la /home/alex/.wine/drive_c/windows/syswow64/"
command

alex(a)penguin:~$ ls -la /home/alex/.wine/drive_c/windows/syswow64/
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 1 alex alex   0 Mar 22 18:29 .
drwxr-xr-x 1 alex alex 342 Mar 22 18:29 ..

It is quite weird that this directory is empty

--- Comment #1 from Alexandre Julliard <julliard(a)winehq.org> ---
That's not how it works, you can't simply remove the 32-bit side.

If you want to try experimental Wow64, at this point you have to build it
yourself with --enable-archs=i386,x86_64.
