[Bug 54626] New: Saving files in Microsoft Word/Excel 2010 creates useless shortcut files
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54626 Bug ID: 54626 Summary: Saving files in Microsoft Word/Excel 2010 creates useless shortcut files Product: Wine Version: 8.0 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: shell32 Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: kle(a)bluewin.ch Distribution: --- Here follows a new bug report regarding the problem observed in old bug report 15480. It was told me that I should open a new bug report. ;-) Okay, the issue regarding the creation of useless shortcut files is back in Wine 8.0 (stable). When I open a *.xlsx file at the desktop and save it (with the same name) to an *.ods file then Excel 2010 will create two files. One is a *.lnk (which points to the original xlsx) and the other is a shortcut regarding the ods file but also with *.ods ending. As mentioned, both of them are non-functional. -- 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.

Reading through the bug, the workaround seemed to be making the directory '$WINEPREFIX/drive_c/$USER/Recent'. In older wine, that directory is created by wineboot. Newer wine doesn't seem to create it. I bisected for that change, which was introduced by: commit 4111801ab317529c3e24c39a6a97e7043438231a Author: Andrew Eikum <aeikum(a)codeweavers.com> Date: Thu May 27 13:37:17 2021 -0500 shell32: Use winvista+ AppData paths. Katamari Damacy Reroll makes an assumption that the LocalAppData folder is a sibling of the LocalAppDataLow folder. Signed-off-by: Andrew Eikum <aeikum(a)codeweavers.com> Signed-off-by: Alexandre Julliard <julliard(a)winehq.org> However, I don't have MS Office 2010, so I can't verify that this is the commit that triggered this particular issue, but it looks related. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54626 --- Comment #2 from C. Leu <kle(a)bluewin.ch> --- Yes, I can confirm that this really solved the problem. I had just to create a "Recent" folder in the corresponding user profile. And it looks that this issue does NOT occur on user profiles which already includes a "Recent" folder. Whatever, many thanks for the fast help and resolution Austin English! So this problem is now "bisected" and understood. It is just necessary to establish regarding older Office versions like 2010 a "Recent" folder in the user profile. That's all. Maybe this is not needed for newer MS Office versions but it is definitely for older ones. ;-) -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54626 --- Comment #3 from Hans Leidekker <hans(a)meelstraat.net> --- I can confirm that the shortcuts in the Recent folder are broken. It's not because the Recent folder has moved but because Office 2010 passes SHARD_PATHW to SHAddToRecentDocs() which is not supported. I have a patch. -- 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.
