            Bug ID: 58105
           Summary: explorer creates extra virtual desktop when using the
                    /desktop=shell argument
           Product: Wine
           Version: 10.5
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown

Picture of extra shell window.

FYI: There's no explorer component in bugzilla. So I've put this under unknown.
Is there a better component for this? (There *is* an explorerframe component,
but that seems too specific for including virtual desktops, as the description
seems to be limited to just the windows7+ taskbar.)

In a wine prefix with virtual desktops enabled, using the /desktop=shell
argument to start explorer, when no other wine processes are running, causes
wine to produce two virtual desktop windows.

The first virtual desktop is the configured via virtual desktop setting in
winecfg, which remains empty.

The second virtual desktop is the requested shell desktop that contains the
taskbar and start menu.

Shouldn't the /desktop=shell argument check to see if a desktop already exists
and if not just create one desktop?

If this is a case of reused functionality, maybe the code that added the
"enable taskbar / start menu" checkbox to winecfg could be upstreamed as a fix?
(It was written during code freeze, but didn't cause this bug, maybe it could
be revisited now?)

'programs' (explorer is is in programs/explorer in the source code). Thanks for
asking! :).
