https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53697 Bug ID: 53697 Summary: Battle.net Agent.8009/Agent.exe not working (installing Battle.net client and updating games) (2022-09-17) Product: Wine Version: 7.17 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: kolAflash(a)kolahilft.de Distribution: --- Created attachment 73102 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=73102 STDOUT/STDERR log (Battle.net client installation) At about 2022-09-17 Blizzard released a new Agent.8009\Agent.exe (5.346.640 bytes) replacing the previous Agent.7984\Agent.exe (5.549.912 bytes) It's is usually placed in one of these folders: WINE C: ProgramData/Battle.net/Agent/ WINE C: users/Public/Application Data/Battle.net/Agent/ Note: This is NOT about the other file named "Agent.exe" (about 595.792 bytes) in the "Agent" folder above. DETAILS With the new Agent.8009/Agent.exe the Battle.net client isn't able to install. wine-7.17 and wine-staging-7.17: And an already installed Battle.net isn't able to update games. The progress is just stuck at 0%. It looks like Agent.exe is continuously crashing and being restarted in background. wine-7.17: When installing Battle.net with you get an hard error "BLZBNTAGT000008FC". wine-staging-7.17: The progress is just stuck at 0%. (similar to when updating games) REPRODUCTION OS: Debian-11 1. Download Battle.net client setup. https://eu.battle.net/download/getInstaller?os=win&installer=Battle.net-Set… https://www.battle.net/download/getInstallerForGame?os=win&gameProgram=BATT… Currently: 4.838.352 bytes 2. Run Battle.net-Setup.exe in a new Wine prefix and click trough the update process. 3. wine-7.17: You get the error "BLZBNTAGT000008FC". wine-staging-7.17: The installation process is stuck at "Installing Battle.net... (0%)". WORKAROUNDS Updating games: Replace Agent.exe in "Agent.8009\" folder with old "Agent.7984\Agent.exe". Installing Battle.net with wine-staging-7.17: Just replace the file while the installing process is being stuck. Afterwards the installation should automatically continue. Installing Battle.net with wine-7.17: DIFFICULT -> try to use wine-staging-7.17 instead! Run Battle.net-Setup.exe once until you get the "BLZBNTAGT000008FC" error. Then close the setup and place Agent.exe version 7984 in that folder an protect it from being overwritten. sudo chattr +i /path/to/Agent.8009/ (may only work on ext4 filesystems) Important: Use "chattr" on the folder "Agent.8009", not on the "Agent.exe" file. The run the Battle.net setup again. You won't be able to delete the "Agent.8009" folder until you run the reverse command sudo chattr -i /path/to/Agent.8009/ SEE ALSO https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/xgb5fx/problems_with_battlen… https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/blizzard/t/last-update-completely-breaks-… -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

[Bug 50064] New: A transparent Agent.exe window is shown when Battle.Net launches
by WineHQ Bugzilla June 9, 2026

June 9, 2026

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50064 Bug ID: 50064 Summary: A transparent Agent.exe window is shown when Battle.Net launches Product: Wine-staging Version: 5.20 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: sashok.olen(a)gmail.com CC: leslie_alistair(a)hotmail.com, z.figura12(a)gmail.com Regression SHA1: 3cea972271b4529e332c75b06f902c80e7de1798 Distribution: ArchLinux Since 3cea972271b4529e332c75b06f902c80e7de1798 (Rebase against f4a66ad257df4605e73dfea792eec55a70a04e84) and with all later staging commits, including 5.20 release, when you launch Battle.Net (a client for Blizzard games), a transparent Agent.exe is shown. Normally, there shouldn't be any window shown for Agent.exe at all. With staging commit b49e8743866224df57eb1032b6c63c999b28c808 and older, the issue cannot be reproduced. Mainline wine (5.20) doesn't have this issue, and 8d04884c1f6aa6b21435130e42978fdeac06df55 (Updated winex11.drv-Query_server_position patchset …), which was supposed to fix this, had no effect. More than that, using a build with that patchset disabled did not get rid of the issue. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

The same is true if all of the miscellaneous variables exported along with Clang are not set; this will still occur. Un-setting lld and/or any of the llvm variables bakes no difference.

[Bug 44403] New: On macOS during first run, Wine configuration population hangs
by wine-bugs＠winehq.org June 8, 2026

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44403 Bug ID: 44403 Summary: On macOS during first run, Wine configuration population hangs Product: Wine Version: 3.0 Hardware: x86 OS: Mac OS X Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: blocker Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: joe.abbey(a)docker.com Wine 3.0 is installed using brew for a CI job using electron-loader to build an installer. The first time wine runs, it creates the ~/.wine directory and registries. Wine never completes, and hangs. Force killing the wine dialog and wine64 process produces enough configuration for a second run to complete. Force killing during CI seems like a bad way forward. To reproduce rm -rf ~/.wine brew install wine Run any wine application and it will hang on config generation. This is currently breaking Kitematic builds. -- 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.
