Bug ID: 45599 Summary: Support for FILE_FLAG_WRITE_THROUGH in CreateFile breaks Wargaming.net Game Center Product: Wine-staging Version: unspecified Hardware: x86 URL: http://redirect.wargaming.net/WGC/Wargaming_Game_Cente r_Install_TWA_EU.exe OS: Linux Status: NEW Keywords: download, regression Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: dark.shadow4@web.de CC: leslie_alistair@hotmail.com, z.figura12@gmail.com Distribution: ---
The program closes with the message "Unable to launch the application because of critical errors."
Guilty patch is "ml-patches/0027-kernel32-Add-support-for-FILE_FLAG_WRITE_THROUGH-to-.patch" - reverting it fixes the issue.
To test just run the installer and then run "drive_c/Program Files/Wargaming.net/GameCenter/wgc.exe" in a fresh(!) WINEPREFIX.
Running the program without the guilty patch, and then with the guilty patch again seems to fix the issue, also.
