Bug ID: 48023 Summary: Visual Studio 2019 not starting Product: Wine Version: 4.18 Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: rpisl@seznam.cz Distribution: ---
Created attachment 65561 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=65561 Hack for RegLoadAppKey
After https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47626 just out of curiosity I tried running Visual Studio: winetricks corefonts dotnet472 msxml6 and applied the attached patch/hack.
Result: splash screen is shown and then welcome screen is displayed. But after clicking "Not now, maybe later" it halts with:
Application: devenv.exe Framework Version: v4.0.30319 Description: The application requested process termination through System.Environment.FailFast(string message). Message: Failed to schedule time on the UI thread. A continuation would never execute.
It crashes much earlier without the patch/hack as it cannot bind binary registry file and read/create registry keys.
