[Bug 59673] New: Densha De Go! Professional 2 crashes on launch since commit 6048ac5dfeb
by WineHQ Bugzilla May 17, 2026

May 17, 2026

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59673 Bug ID: 59673 Summary: Densha De Go! Professional 2 crashes on launch since commit 6048ac5dfeb Product: Wine Version: unspecified Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: d3d Assignee: wine-bugs(a)list.winehq.org Reporter: duuqnd(a)stacken.kth.se Distribution: --- Created attachment 80764 --> http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=80764 backtrace Since commit 6048ac5dfeb, found by performing a git bisect, the game Densha De Go! Professional 2 crashes on startup due to a NULL pointer dereference. I've attached a backtrace, though in previous commits it used to crash in a different function. The backtrace was made from a build compiled from the master branch as of 2026-04-18 (which happens to be tagged wine-11.7). As mentioned, the culprit is as far as I can tell the change introduced in commit 6048ac5dfeb, but I'll admit that I don't know why those changes were made nor why they cause the problem. They absolutely seem related though. It doesn't seem like it should be difficult to figure out for those who are familiar with that part of the code, but I could be wrong on that. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

[Bug 59519] New: ole32: OLE clipboard caches stale window handle after STA thread terminates, breaking subsequent OleSetClipboard calls
by WineHQ Bugzilla May 17, 2026

May 17, 2026

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59519 Bug ID: 59519 Summary: ole32: OLE clipboard caches stale window handle after STA thread terminates, breaking subsequent OleSetClipboard calls Product: Wine Version: unspecified Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: ole32 Assignee: wine-bugs(a)list.winehq.org Reporter: ayourk(a)gmail.com Distribution: --- Created attachment 80543 --> http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=80543 reproducer source This bug is really starting to bug me ;) so I figured it was time to report it and squash it! I know that in REAL Windows, this works fine, but as you can test from the attached sample app, the clipboard copy only really works once before the application has to be restarted for it to work again. OleSetClipboard fails with CLIPBRD_E_CANT_OPEN (0x800401D0) on the second and all subsequent calls when each call is made from a new STA thread and the main thread has OLE initialized. This pattern is used by .NET WinForms applications. Clipboard.SetText() internally spawns a new STA thread, calls OleSetClipboard, then exits the thread. The main thread keeps OLE initialized (.NET runtime), so OLE_moduleLockCount never drops to 0 and clipbrd_uninitialize() never runs on the copy threads. The cached clipboard window HWND from the first (now-dead) thread is never cleared. This is deterministic, not a race condition. 100% reproducible on Wine 9.0 through 11.0. I even tested it on the latest development branch. The buggy caching pattern has been present since the OLE clipboard was first implemented (commit 557ff419bea, July 18, 1999), so this affects every Wine version ever released. It went unnoticed because the trigger pattern (main thread keeps OLE alive + new STA threads for each clipboard operation) is specific to .NET WinForms applications. Affected application: Space Engineers (Steam App ID 244850) — Ctrl+C works once, then freezes for ~1 second on every subsequent Ctrl+C. The clipboard never updates past the first copy. This is also reported at https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/1792 STEPS TO REPRODUCE ================== Prerequisites: Main thread has OLE initialized (OleInitialize), as in any .NET application. 1. Spawn STA Thread A: OleInitialize(NULL) -> OleSetClipboard(NULL) -> OleSetClipboard(data1) -> OleFlushClipboard() -> OleUninitialize() -> thread exits Wait for Thread A to complete. 2. Paste: OpenClipboard(NULL) -> GetClipboardData(CF_TEXT) -> "first" Result: correct. 3. Spawn STA Thread B: OleInitialize(NULL) -> OleSetClipboard(NULL) Result: returns 0x800401D0 (CLIPBRD_E_CANT_OPEN) All 10 retries fail with the same error. 4. Paste: GetClipboardData(CF_TEXT) -> still "first" Expected: "second" 5. All subsequent copy attempts from new threads fail the same way. EXPECTED BEHAVIOR (Windows) =========================== Each copy succeeds immediately. After step 3, the clipboard contains "second". Tested on Windows 7, 10, and 11 -- all succeed. ACTUAL BEHAVIOR (Wine 9.0 through 11.0) ======================================== First copy succeeds. All subsequent copies fail with CLIPBRD_E_CANT_OPEN. The clipboard permanently retains the first copied text. Each failed copy takes ~1 second (10 retries x 100ms). ROOT CAUSE ========== In dlls/ole32/clipboard.c, get_clipbrd_window() caches a single HWND per process: static inline HRESULT get_clipbrd_window(ole_clipbrd *clipbrd, HWND *wnd) { if ( !clipbrd->window ) clipbrd->window = create_clipbrd_window(); *wnd = clipbrd->window; return *wnd ? S_OK : E_FAIL; } When the STA thread that created this window terminates, the window is destroyed but the stale HWND remains cached. clipbrd_uninitialize() (which clears it) only runs when OLE_moduleLockCount drops to 0, which never happens in a .NET app because the main thread keeps OLE alive. PROPOSED FIX ============ Add an IsWindow() check to get_clipbrd_window(): if ( clipbrd->window && !IsWindow(clipbrd->window) ) clipbrd->window = NULL; This detects the stale handle and forces creation of a fresh window on the current thread. Patch is attached. REPRODUCER ========== A standalone GUI test app is attached (clipboard_test.c + .exe). It has two modes: Mode A (Bug): Replicates the exact .NET OLE clipboard path. - Main thread calls OleInitialize (simulates .NET environment) - Each copy spawns a new STA thread: OleInitialize -> OleSetClipboard(NULL) -> OleSetClipboard(data) -> OleFlushClipboard -> OleUninitialize -> exit - 10-retry loop with 100ms delays (matches .NET Clipboard.SetText exactly) - Three copy/paste cycles with "first", "second", "third" - Copy 1 succeeds; Copy 2 and 3 fail with 0x800401D0 Mode B (Fix): Same OLE operations but manages the clipboard window lifetime correctly, demonstrating the fix works. - All three copies succeed. Build: x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc -o clipboard_test.exe clipboard_test.c \ -lgdi32 -lole32 -luuid -mwindows Run: wine clipboard_test.exe Log output (clipboard_test.log) is attached showing the failure. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

[Bug 55518] New: VelbusLink: terminates immediately after creating a window
by WineHQ Bugzilla May 16, 2026

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55518 Bug ID: 55518 Summary: VelbusLink: terminates immediately after creating a window Product: Wine Version: 8.14 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: winehq(a)kazlauskas.me Distribution: --- Created attachment 75080 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=75080 stdout/err of the failing command When launching the application, the application window will briefly flash and disappear as the application terminates. I made few attempts to catch the moment this happens with `winedbg` to no avail. I’m using wine-staging 8.14 to test it, although I’ve tried various versions including 8.0. To reproduce this issue: 1. Download an installer for VelbusLink: $ curl 'https://www.velleman.eu/downloads/velbus/velbuslink/velbuslink-10.8.6.0.exe' -Lo ~/Downloads/velbuslink-10.8.6.0.exe $ sha256sum ~/Downloads/velbuslink-10.8.6.0.exe 39630e960fe5be289232a6f2409c92ffe0c81e1794f166919aaffddf33eb9814 ~/Downloads/velbuslink-10.8.6.0.exe 2. Install it via: `wine ~/Downloads/velbuslink-10.8.6.0.exe '/VERYSILENT'` 3. Run `wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files\ $x86$/Velbus/VelbusLink/VelbusLink.exe`. --- Side notes: * With Wine 8.0 the application fails with an assertion as seen in Bug 50282. In Wine 8.14, there is no assertion failure, but the application fails to launch regardles. * Some version of steam proton manages to run the application, but it is rendered incorrectly with the window frame/background appearing in front of the application contents, making application effectively unusable. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
