What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Depends on| |45208
--- Comment #3 from Rosanne DiMesio dimesio@earthlink.net --- The .lnk files appear on the virtual desktop in a fresh install, at the inconvenience of having to reinstall apps that were and still are working perfectly fine in the old wineprefix, just to get those links back.
Bug 45208 currently blocks retesting Office 2010 and does not look likely to be fixed any time soon. If it happens in my lifetime, I will certainly retest.
However, I do want to point out that many apps have limited numbers of activations, and expecting people to use them up because of arbitrary changes to the wineprefix seems unreasonable.
