[Bug 34213] winemenubuilder.exe fails every time

This doesn't seem like the same behavior.  First there was a crash of
winemenubuilder.  Then there was a failure to create a new wineprefix (bug
34188).  You applied the fix patch from that bug and that got you past that,
now you have a crash in putty.exe.

Are you able to run regedit?  If so, try switching to the X11 driver:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Drivers]
"Graphics"="x11"

If you can't run regedit, then make sure there are no running Wine processes,
edit the user.reg file within the wineprefix, and add these lines (similar but
not identical):

[Software\Wine\Drivers]
"Graphics"="x11"

Does that make things work?
