An update in wine has partly fixed the protection check. If you don't activate (I'm assuming it's due to this) you get 'The serial number is not valid'. It's possible work around this at the moment (I don't wish to elaborate as not to encourage those without a code), but it's possible that later this will no longer work, and in addition it's annoying to have to work around on a paid for copy. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

And the other bug it's really spammed a lot. The spam comes from here http://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git/?a=search&h=HEAD&st=grep&s=ecurity+arg... Could be a good starting point. Most likely when you get the other bug fixed the other gets too. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41350 --- Comment #5 from blizzard(a)sachlevice.eu --- Hello, I am still having this problem. Do we know anything more about this idiotic registry functions? I checked wine C code a bit so maybe I would be able to implement something... But I don't have a clue what is it about. Or if I can help other way I would like to just tell me how. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41350 --- Comment #6 from David <dav75uk(a)yahoo.co.uk> --- Looks like this is actually a double problem. The first is that the activation (can run the admin tool that comes with it instead of the application) and deactivation fail with not implemented yet (see log). Sometimes however it does succeed, and deactivation can be done with a force deactivation. (it's also easier as the captcha doesn't display correctly most of the time and it's easier to retry until it does on the tool) However even with it reported as activated on the tool, it's still not being picked up in the application. I also noticed that after a successful activation it had unactivated itself. This is probably due to: 004c:fixme:reg:RegQueryInfoKeyA security argument not supported. 004c:fixme:reg:RegQueryInfoKeyA security argument not supported. which appears both in the tool and the application. So the question is could the security argument be supported? -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

This is probably due to:
004c:fixme:reg:RegQueryInfoKeyA security argument not supported. 004c:fixme:reg:RegQueryInfoKeyA security argument not supported.
which appears both in the tool and the application.
Well, maybe, but probably not. That specific warning shows up in a lot of places and is rarely if ever responsible for failures. -- 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.
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41350 --- Comment #9 from David <dav75uk(a)yahoo.co.uk> --- Now seeing the following on the console wine: Read access denied for device L"\\??\\Z:\\", FS volume label and serial are not available. - this might explain the message 'the serial number is not valid' as the feedback to the activation check. Fixing this might allow activation, but it also might prevent running the application if there are other problems with registration still to fix. Any thoughts on fixing this? -- 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.
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41350 --- Comment #10 from David <dav75uk(a)yahoo.co.uk> --- As of wine 7.20 Chessbase 11 activates. When entering the code in the prompt box, it no longer pesters for an activation code. Things are still a little inconsistent as if you open the admin tool it says it's not registered. At least now I've not got to worry that the app will shutdown on me, and no longer have to workaround. I'm assuming this fixes the problem in Chessbase 12 but I don't have the software to test. Could the original user (dbacc(a)posteo.de) retry and if so this can be closed. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41350 --- Comment #11 from David <dav75uk(a)yahoo.co.uk> --- Admin tool showing fine as of wine 10.0 - Given you can also activate the later Chessbase 17, I'm going to say this can be closed now as it's virtually guaranteed to work with Chessbase 12. I guess if anyone still uses 12, they can reopen if needed. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
