Important Note: This folder is _supposed_ to be created when the new prefix is created and it usually is, but for some reason this step does not always occur.
It seems that that is the bug then.. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33207 --- Comment #4 from Daniel Jelinski <djelinski1(a)gmail.com> 2013-06-22 08:49:18 CDT --- The Application Data folders (both local and roaming) are deleted during the execution of winetricks dotnet20sp2. They are deleted during action RemoveFiles, when the installer removes all empty temporary folders. Adding a placeholder file or folder inside Application Data and Local Settings\Application Data is sufficient to prevent these folders from being deleted. This is definitely not a shell32 bug. It could be a msi bug, but I think that adding a placeholder is probably the correct fix here. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

This is definitely not a shell32 bug. It could be a msi bug, but I think that adding a placeholder is probably the correct fix here.
It could also be failure to recreate the application data folders. How does the app try to create its folder? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
