Just checking because you wrote "The game crashes", this comment was about Max 7 not about a game, right?
Whoops, yes, sorry. I'm so used to debugging games I sometimes accidentally write "game" even when the program isn't one :-)
OK, good to know :)
Btw. What happens if I delete that registry key myself? Does anything within wine break?
Probably, but regardless Wine will re-create the key on startup anyway.
OK. Also I noticed wine stores it's config there so probably no a good idea to delete it :)
I guess I'll send a mail to Cycling 74 to ask them if they are could remove the wine check since it should no longer be necessary. Any suggestions what I can mention to them so they know what to fix? Seems like the function is called "UpdateLayeredWindow"? Is that Max code or Windows code? (Sorry, all of this is new to me).

Created attachment 59721 [details] sad hack ...
(For completeness I attached very poor and sad hack that makes the crash dissappear so the app works apparantly well)
The hacky patch works, even though it ain't pretty at least it means I can get going again. Thanks!
