[Bug 59242] New: GOG installer won't go away/down
by WineHQ Bugzilla Jan. 13, 2026

Jan. 13, 2026

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59242 Bug ID: 59242 Summary: GOG installer won't go away/down Product: Wine Version: 10.7 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)list.winehq.org Reporter: stalliondrift(a)gmail.com Distribution: --- All GOG offline installers (NSIS‑based) exhibit incorrect window behavior under Wine. The installer window cannot remain minimized and always forces itself back to the foreground, ignoring window manager rules and user actions. This happens with every GOG installer tested, including base game installers and DLC installers. The issue appears to be related to incorrect handling of window manager hints in Wine’s X11 driver. The installer forcibly raises itself even when minimized, which breaks normal desktop usage. Expected behavior: The installer window should behave like a normal application window: • remain minimized when minimized • not force itself to the foreground • respect WM rules and stacking order • not override user actions Actual behavior: • minimizing the installer works for ~1 second • the window immediately restores itself • it jumps to the foreground • it ignores WM control • it cannot be kept in the background This happens consistently with all GOG installers. Steps to reproduce: 1. Download any GOG game with exe installer(s). 2. Run it wine Wine by double click in order to use the GUI. 3. Try to minimize the installer's window. 4. Observe its return to "on top" state almost immediately. Temporary workaround: Disable window manager control in winecfg. Additional notes: The issue appears to be specific to GOG’s NSIS‑based installers, which use custom window hooks. The behavior is reproducible both on a clean Wine prefix with no overrides and a customized prefix with thousands of overrides. Starts with version 10.7 for sure and remains unchanged with 11.0-rc5. I found a permanent workaround - a script for silent installation but most people will wanna use the GUI of the GOG installers, so this problem must be fixed. This is the script: wine *.exe /VERYSILENT /SP- /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES /DIR="Z:\\B\\GAMES\\$1" && cd DLC && for name in *.exe; do wine "$name" /VERYSILENT /SP- /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES; done -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

[Bug 59241] New: [Feature-Request] Add optional environment variable to disable IPv6 in Wine
by WineHQ Bugzilla Jan. 13, 2026

Jan. 13, 2026

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59241 Bug ID: 59241 Summary: [Feature-Request] Add optional environment variable to disable IPv6 in Wine Product: Wine Version: unspecified Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)list.winehq.org Reporter: bugs.winehq.org.confess471(a)passinbox.com Distribution: --- Issue Description Some games running under Wine/Proton encounter high or unstable ping when IPv6 is available but routing is suboptimal (e.g., Overwatch 2). Currently, there is no way to disable IPv6 within Proton or Wine without changing system-wide settings. This can negatively affect gameplay, especially on Linux systems where global IPv6 deactivation is undesirable. Other applications may use or depend on IPv6. The most elegant way to handle this would be following: Proposed Solution: Introduce an optional environment variable, for example: WINE_DISABLE_IPV6=1 Benefits: Allows users to fix IPv6-related latency issues in games/applications without modifying system-wide IPv6 settings Improves Linux gaming experience for games that prefer IPv4 in poorly routed IPv6 environments References: Reddit discussion about Overwatch 2 high ping when IPv6 is enabled: https://www.reddit.com/r/overwatch2/comments/1n4a4ko Blizzard forums: users report IPv6 routing causing high ping: https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/overwatch/t/my-ping-keep-spiking-and-rubb… Proton-Issue: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/9396#event-21998734050 kisak-valve (Proton-Dev) said following: "...this reads like something that should be evaluated and implemented in upstream wine first, after that's been achieved, then we could ponder backporting the functionality to Proton." -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

There are hundreds of lines stating this: AddAccessAllowedAceEx(, group) failed: 1337 I would assume that these are probably file permission errors, as they are shown when downloading and extracting packages. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

[Bug 11846] New: tablet pressure sensitivity not working in Sai and many other key graphic applications
by wine-bugs＠winehq.org Jan. 11, 2026

Jan. 11, 2026

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11846 Summary: tablet pressure sensitivity not working in Sai and many other key graphic applications Product: Wine Version: 0.9.56. Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: wintab32 AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: blurymind(a)gmail.com tablet pressure sensitivity still not working on crucial graphic software that is made to be used with tablets. I am not sure if thats due wintab32,because im not a developer. Applications like SAI that are wonderfully small ,full featured and even better than photoshop for CG coloring (better brushes,other key features) work almost perfectly fine on wine, but their practically useless when tablet pressure doesnt work.. http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=11044 another application that is a freeware and a fine substitute for painter is http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=7425&iTestingI… tablet pressure works on photoshop and artrage,but not on many other key applications in the graphic world that crucially depend on it. This feature is very important,since there are absolutely no alternatives to these applications on linux (if you study their key features you'll see there arent any on windows too at the moment,especially Sai). The applications work almost perfectly on wine,but that lack of this feature stops people from taking advantage of that. Another application is Open Canvas... But especially Sai- If there is any hack or workaround to get pressure sensitivity working on sai, even a patch..i would gladly test it and report any progress on Sai on wine. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email 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.
