Created attachment 71029 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=71029 Battle.net Wine log
I have installed Battle.net through Lutris on my NTFS formatted drive, and after a few days the application fails to launch with "A required DLL could not be found" error.
I decided to try to tackle this issue because everyone on Lutris says the first solution to this bug is to disable DXVK, and the other one is to install Battle.net on a ext4 drive, although this is not an ideal solution for some users (like me).
I found out that there is a bug that Battle.net cannot find the required DLLs, even though they exist in the Wine prefix. The problem seems to be related to case sensitive naming on Linux systems, and even with windows_names mount option for ntfs-3g, the application cannot find the required DLLs.
