[Bug 923] - WINE DESTROYED MY SYSTEM!

by wine-bugs＠winehq.com

http://bugs.winehq.com/show_bug.cgi?id=923 pharouff(a)comcast.net changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|RESOLVED |UNCONFIRMED Resolution|INVALID | ------- Additional Comments From pharouff(a)comcast.net 2002-08-01 21:34 ------- Thank you for the responses. The fix appears to have worked. I still need to reboot into Windows to try it out, but it looks like everything is there. There are still two files that did not get fixed by decorrupt_explorer, maybe someone knows where they belong. C:\Program Files\!$!$!$!$.mm2 C:\Program Files\!$!$!$!$.msn As for the other comments, I did see the warning about Explorer, and I never attempted to manually run Explorer. But what happens when you try to install a program that automatically attempts to register the software via the internet? MOST programs do this now. The program I was trying to install is free vendor supplied software from a lighting manufacturer who registers the users. This might explain why the program locked up at the time that it did. Everything seemed to be working great, then BAM! It was probably trying to start the registration process. As for backing up, all the new files were stored in my $HOME directory on the Linux partition. I wasn't expecting it to screw with the Windows partition. While I understand this is ALPHA software, I was expecting this release to be more stable than the last, not less (especially after the glowing reviews I had read). Anyway, if your response is correct, the cause was Windows and not WINE. While I no longer believe it was your fault, I still feel that this is still a CRITICAL BUG that requires as a minimum some work around for protection. I tried the installation twice. The first time I used the temporary Windows directory approach. I know that after this attempt, my C:\Program Files directory was still intact, because I went looking for the Office files it was requesting. When that attempt didn't work, I followed the suggestion that pops up in the debug box and tried a second time with native Windows. I haven't done any programming since about 1988, so needless to say I don't understand the intricacies of c, perl, java, etc. But if you don't have enough information to fix this problem yet, there should be a way to add a temporary check to block any system calls to start Explorer and return an error like "Program Not Found" to the calling routine (or better yet redirect it to Netscape, Mozilla or Konqeror). So maybe some programs crash at this point, but at least it doesn't screw up the partition. If nothing else, get rid of the suggestion to try native Windows installation! This was my biggest mistake. After this experience, it's my opinion that any program that appears to run then locks up under fake Windows probably needs Explorer. While I'm impressed with the progress you've made since I first tried WINE last Christmas, I feel that, basically, WINE is completely unusable until this is fixed. Ever since Windows 98 came out virtually all Windows software uses Explorer. You can't avoid it. Bill Gates would have us believe it can't run without it. ;-) DO NOT REPLY TO THIS EMAIL, BUT PLEASE POST YOUR BUG RELATED COMMENTS THROUGH THE WEB INTERFACE AVAILABLE AT <http://bugs.winehq.com/show_bug.cgi?id=923>.

With the wine in cvs. I just checked out yesterday (2002/08/01). I'm not testing this with warcraft ii though, it's just another directx game (Cluedo).

We should list some cases of programs here doing this, and we should try to find a viable countermeasure for it (or fix Wine alternatively if it turns out that Wine is the problem in one case or another).
