[Bug 45974] New: regedit exits prematurely
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45974 Bug ID: 45974 Summary: regedit exits prematurely Product: Wine Version: 3.16 Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: programs Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: zl29ah(a)gmail.com Distribution: --- Run the following shell script: cat > desktop.reg << EOF REGEDIT4 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Explorer] "Desktop"="Default" EOF regedit desktop.reg winecfg And observe that winecfg is ran in a window instead of firing up the virtual desktop. Adding `sleep 5` between regedit and winecfg makes it work as expected. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

There's a 1-second delay before shutting down an existing explorer process, to improve performance in case another app is launched right away. That's on purpose.
`sleep 5` is because lesser values have misfired at least once. What would be the proper way to wait for it to die or kill it for good? -- 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.

Why do you need that? What are you trying to do? If the goal is to launch inside a specific desktop, you can do that by invoking explorer explicitly, something like "explorer /desktop=foo winecfg". -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45974 --- Comment #4 from Sergey Alirzaev <zl29ah(a)gmail.com> --- Some applications misbehave when ran w/o a virtual desktop, so i want to run them (and only them) with a virtual desktop. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45974 --- Comment #5 from Alexandre Julliard <julliard(a)winehq.org> --- You can use the explorer /desktop trick, or configure the desktop entry for the specific executable name by adding the application on winecfg's first screen. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

(Of course, in this instance explicitly using `wine explorer /desktop`, as recommended by Alexandre, is probably the better option.) -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
