           Summary: wine start /unix stopped working in 6.5
           Product: Wine

          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux

Quack,

I just upgraded to 6.5 using WineHQ's Debian packages. My computer is using
Debian unstable.

When starting my games using start /unix I now get: (leaving out
fixme:font:opentype_enum_font_names lines)
$ wine start /unix $WINEPREFIX/drive_c/GOG\ Games/Risen\ 3\ -\ Titan\
Lords/LanguageSetup.exe 
Application could not be started, or no application associated with the
specified file.
ShellExecuteEx failed: File not found.

If I remove start /unix in this case it works but not all programs will be
happy with this unless I manually go into the right workdir, that is why I use
this feature as recommended in the user's guide.

6.4 worked fine and many versions before. I did not see anything about this in
the news and changelog. Has anything changed?

Regards.
