It is probably best to have it compatible with Windows? If the key is really needed (lets the app work at least in some way, not just start) I'd suggest to create it in programs/wineboot/wineboot.c with the random uuid and compatible format (if it is not present yet, so if it is initialized once in Wine prefix it is persistent like on Windows). The app is able to work with it fully, I thought of creating a uuid but wasn't sure since SQM telemetry is disabled in wine either way, and from my (admittedly limited) testing just an empty value seems to be enough
I can make it create a random uuid if that's preferred though. -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/11055#note_141998
