[Bug 59402] New: AssocQueryStringW does not update pcchOut when pszOut is non-null
by WineHQ Bugzilla Feb. 10, 2026

Feb. 10, 2026

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59402 Bug ID: 59402 Summary: AssocQueryStringW does not update pcchOut when pszOut is non-null Product: Wine Version: 11.2 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: shlwapi Assignee: wine-bugs(a)list.winehq.org Reporter: marijns95(a)gmail.com Distribution: --- In a little Rust crate called `webbrowser`, `AssocQueryStringW()` is used to retrieve the command to launch a webbrowser: https://github.com/amodm/webbrowser-rs/blob/94baf04e0c325f4ae9f86969dee252b… I'm currently running this under `wine` (just updated to 11.2) and found the character count in `pcchOut` isn't updated but remains at the default buffer size of `512` (leading to the rest of the code processing a string with a bunch of interior NULs, because Rust uses string length by default). If I manually alter the code to pass `NULL` to `pszOut`, the count is updated to the actual length of the command string. This seems to mismatch what this crate is expecting, and what the Windows documentation states: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/shlwapi/nf-shlwapi-asso… > When the function returns successfully, the value is set to the number of characters actually placed in the buffer. The documentation of the underlying IQueryAssociations_fnGetString() also says: > Success: S_OK. pszOut contains the string, pcchOut contains its length. Looking at the actual implementation of ASSOC_ReturnString, it only updates `*outlen` when the output string was NULL (as seen above) or when it was too small for the data (`*outlen < datalen`): https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/blob/9f704e4cc4a346d249ebc5346975e2d1… Should this assignment simply be moved out of those if's? -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

[Bug 59400] New: Minecraft: Story Mode has broken cursor bounding boxes
by WineHQ Bugzilla Feb. 10, 2026

Feb. 10, 2026

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59400 Bug ID: 59400 Summary: Minecraft: Story Mode has broken cursor bounding boxes Product: Wine Version: 11.2 Hardware: x86-64 OS: MacOS Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)list.winehq.org Reporter: afifsworld132(a)gmail.com System: MacBook Pro M1 (2020) Wine: Staging. Happening at least since V9.0 Renderer: dgVoodoo 2 to DXMT 0.73 Basically, if I set the resolution to the maximum in MCSM (2880x1800), the cursor becomes smaller, moves slower and importantly the bounding box for the cursor becomes halved such where the bottom-right corner is now situated at the middle of the screen, so the cursor can only go from top-right to middle of the screen. Note this all happens with High Resolution mode on, The cursor's movement speed, bounding box and size are correct when the resolution is set at the minimum (800x600) resolution. I can't tell if this is a dgVoodoo issue or a DXMT issue, so I report here. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

I attached my console output. You can reproduce the bug just by downloading the file and trying to install. I kept my terminal open for more than 3 hours beacuse the process is "running" and if I close the terminal it says that a process is still running and closing the terminal will kill it. Therefore I don't know if my console output is complete or not. If I can help in some way, just tell me! :) -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

[Bug 59365] New: d2d1: Text not rendered in VSTGUI applications (Serum2)
by WineHQ Bugzilla Feb. 9, 2026

Feb. 9, 2026

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59365 Bug ID: 59365 Summary: d2d1: Text not rendered in VSTGUI applications (Serum2) Product: Wine Version: 11.0 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: d2d Assignee: wine-bugs(a)list.winehq.org Reporter: nen24t(a)gmail.com Distribution: --- Created attachment 80305 --> http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=80305 d2d1: Force NATURAL rendering mode instead of OUTLINE/ALIASED Xfer Serum2 renders no text or heavily pixelated fonts under Wine. In `dlls/d2d1/device.c`, when `IDWriteFontFace_GetRecommendedRenderingMode()` fails, Wine falls back to `DWRITE_RENDERING_MODE_OUTLINE`. This mode produces empty glyphs with FreeType. Additionally, `DWRITE_RENDERING_MODE_ALIASED` produces unreadable pixelated text. Forcing `DWRITE_RENDERING_MODE_NATURAL` instead fixes both issues. To reproduce: 1. Install Xfer Serum2 via yabridge 2. Load plugin in REAPER 3. Text is invisible or pixelated Tested on Wine 11.1, Ubuntu, X11. Note: This is separate from Bug https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58438 (geometry/bitmap glitches, black boxes). That issue was addressed in Serum 2.0.22 via app-side workarounds. This bug is specifically about DWrite rendering mode selection. Patch attached. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

[Bug 59399] New: Gnome dev sabotage causing crashes

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59399 Bug ID: 59399 Summary: Gnome dev sabotage causing crashes Product: Wine Version: unspecified Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)list.winehq.org Reporter: dcrockerjr(a)gmail.com Distribution: --- Created attachment 80361 --> http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=80361 Sabotaged gnome power menu with a quip where a disable should be and an ineffective screen blank setting A gnome dev [ebassi Emmanuele Bassi GNOME Team] has made it impossible to disable automatic suspend in gnome, see: https://discourse.gnome.org/t/consider-adding-inhibit-suspend-toggle-pill-i… and https://ometer.com/preferences.html His sabotage makes wine games crash after running a while due to his sabotage of the gnome settings menu for automatic suspend making it not only impossible to disable, but also removed the ability to actually disable automatic screen blank and also making it ignore the Automatic screen blank settings so even if you select 15 min it really secretly goes back to 5min. He claims he wants apps like wine to use a inhibition API though that seems like it would hurt non-gnome users who want to limit screen time or something. I am reluctant to suggest humoring him, but if there were an option in wine for gnome users to activate this inhibition API thing it would help ubuntu users and other distros using Gnome play games despite ebassi's sabotage.

[Bug 59345] New: Popup menus in audio plugins break for the whole session
by WineHQ Bugzilla Feb. 9, 2026

Feb. 9, 2026

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59345 Bug ID: 59345 Summary: Popup menus in audio plugins break for the whole session Product: Wine Version: 11.1 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: winex11.drv Assignee: wine-bugs(a)list.winehq.org Reporter: 96gz52jbf(a)mozmail.com CC: rbernon(a)codeweavers.com Regression SHA1: f24d38e1efe96598918b59ceb268fbfbf17f558d Distribution: --- In many audio plugins popup and dropdown menus work initially but by opening them multiple times they begin to open less and less frequently until clicking on the buttons to open the menus does nothing. The effect then persists across plugins and even newly launched plugins until the window manager is restarted (logging out and logging back in also works). As I was debugging this I did notice that using WINEDEBUG=+relay slowed things down enough for the menus to open again. With yabridge the breakage is reached pretty quickly if the project uses many Windows plugins through Wine. I've been able to consistently reproduce this with the standalone versions Toontrack's plugins (EZBass, EZDrummer 3), which use JUCE although I don't know if that's relevant, by simply clicking on the menus repeatedly. Relatively quickly the clicks seemingly stop working as the menus stop opening. I did regression testing and found out that in the already broken session using Wine 10.4 makes menus open again. The exact commit that results in the menus not working in an already broken session is 30fa691d99df7d6dfe37d16fe708d603919f9fd1. However, reverting it for the Wine 11.1 has no effect and everything remains broken. So I did more regression testing and found out that with Wine 10.16 and a fresh session the breakage never happens. The commit that results in the breakage is f24d38e1efe96598918b59ceb268fbfbf17f558d, which reverted for Wine 10.17 fixes things but not for Wine 11.1. Commit 0a7082d37efba17f5badea361c8727f424192e68 added a condition to f24d38e1efe9 that resulted in a merge conflict so I reverted that as well. With the commits from the previous paragraph reverted, the issue persisted and with more regression testing I discovered that commit c6cab075f512f95b0f350d0d8c51fff3e3c44a9f (related to https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59102) also needed to be reverted. After that the menus open normally and the session-wide breakage doesn't happen. In summary, commits f24d38e1efe96598918b59ceb268fbfbf17f558d and c6cab075f512f95b0f350d0d8c51fff3e3c44a9f result in a session-wide state where the popup menus stop opening entirely in multiple audio plugins. Initially they open normally but by constantly clicking on the menu buttons, they first start to open less reliably until them not opening becomes permanent. Restarting the window manager fixes it. This happens in a KWin Wayland session but not in an X11 session nor did it happen using IceWM. That does mean it could be an issue with XWayland and not Wine. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
