Hi all, A few weeks ago I was setting up a fake-windows install, and ran across a few pieces of software that just crashed.. like the Visual Studio installer. After a little bit of investigation, I discovered these were trying to read the HKLM\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\VersionNumber key. And of course, as this is a 'required' key in Windows, there was no code to cope with failure :) At the very least this should be added to the default registry with a dummy value (oh yeah, values are like: "4.90.3000"). But my question is whether or not Wine should dynamically 'lie' about this registry key, depending what winver the current thread is running in. Thoughts? - Ender
