[Bug 32349] New: Wine can't handle pre-configured files

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32349

             Bug #: 32349
           Summary: Wine can't handle pre-configured files
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.5.18
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org
        ReportedBy: sworddragon2(a)aol.com
    Classification: Unclassified


I have manually created the file ~/.wine/system.reg with the following content:

[Software\\Microsoft\\Windows NT\\CurrentVersion] 0
"CSDVersion"="Service Pack 1"
"CurrentBuildNumber"="7601"
"CurrentVersion"="6.1"
"ProductName"="Microsoft Windows 7"


Starting winecfg will show me Windows XP instead of Windows 7. But the most
problem is that Wine doesn't now save any configurations anymore. The easiest
solution would be if Wine would use this incremental configuration and fill the
rest with the default values.

It will work if you include the proper signature (not that I would recommend
doing it this way).

This example does work now:

WINE REGISTRY Version 2

[Software\\Microsoft\\Windows NT\\CurrentVersion] 0
"CSDVersion"="Service Pack 1"
"CurrentBuildNumber"="7601"
"CurrentVersion"="6.1"
"ProductName"="Microsoft Windows 7"

[System\\CurrentControlSet\\Control\\ProductOptions] 0
"ProductType"="WinNT"


After winecfg is called the first time it fills the rest with the default
configurations. But there are some minor differences. For example the following
will be missing if the file was pre-configured:

[System\\CurrentControlSet\\Control\\Session Manager\\Environment] 1354512358
"NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS"="6"
"PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE"="AMD64"
"PROCESSOR_IDENTIFIER"="AMD64 Family 16 Model 10 Stepping 0, GenuineIntel"
"PROCESSOR_LEVEL"="16"
"PROCESSOR_REVISION"="0a00"


Is this normal that Wine doesn't fill these entries anymore if they are
missing?

There shouldn't be anything missing. It works fine here.

Then it is maybe a bug. Here are the exact steps to reproduce:

1. Rename your old profile (directory to your profile) if it exists.
2. Start winecfg and wait until the first configuration is done.
3. Change the operating system to Windows 7.
4. Press OK and wait until all Wine processes have finished.
5. Rename the profile ~/.wine to ~/.wine_old.
6. Create manually the file ~/.wine/system.reg with the following content:
WINE REGISTRY Version 2

[Software\\Microsoft\\Windows NT\\CurrentVersion]
"CSDVersion"="Service Pack 1"
"CurrentBuildNumber"="7601"
"CurrentVersion"="6.1"
"ProductName"="Microsoft Windows 7"

[System\\CurrentControlSet\\Control\\ProductOptions]
"ProductType"="WinNT"

7. Start winecfg and wait until the first configuration is done.
8. Close winecfg and wait until all Wine processes have finished.
9. Remove the timestamps for easier comparing with "sed -i 's/\] [0-9]*/\]/g'
.wine/*.reg && sed -i 's/\] [0-9]*/\]/g' .wine_old/*.reg".
10. Compare the files with "diff .wine_old/system.reg .wine/system.reg &&
.wine_old/user.reg .wine/user.reg && .wine_old/userdef.reg .wine/userdef.reg".

It seems the major difference is that the architecture has changed which will
logically result in a few changed registry keys. Without any pre-configured
files Wine choosed #arch=win64 and with a pre-configured file #arch=win32 was
choosen.

You'd have to add the appropriate #arch if you want it to be the same. I still
don't see any evidence of a bug.

I'm still wondering why Wine chooses a different architecture if the file is
pre-configured or not. Why doesn't it chooses the same architecture in both
cases?

A missing #arch is assumed to mean 32-bit, for backwards compatibility.

This sounds to be logic to me. Then all is working fine here and I'm closing
the ticket.
