            Bug ID: 57572
           Summary: Wine IEXPLORE shows incorrect Windows version in UA
                    String
           Product: Wine-gecko
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: trivial
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-gecko-unknown
          Assignee: jacek(a)codeweavers.com
          Reporter: bammgabriana(a)gmail.com
      Distribution: ---

When opening Whatismybrowser.com in Wine explore, it says I a running "Internet
Explorer 7 on Windows 8"

The UA String confirms this:

Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 6.2; WOW64; Trident/7.0; .NET CLR
2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.0.30729; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET4.0C; .NET4.0E)

The string "Windows NT 6.2" is equivalent to Win8.

I'm running it in a default Wine prefix which is set to Windows 10 by default.

Since this seems to be hardcoded (not actually detected), I suggest a simple
cosmetic change to change of the UA String to say "Windows NT 10.0", which is
what shows up when a browser is run under Win10.

Earlier versions of Windows 10 actually did still have Internet Explorer, so it
is not an impossible situation.
