--- Comment #5 from Olivier F. R. Dierick o.dierick@piezo-forte.be --- Hello,
Confirming from my own experience.
As mentioned on bug 55980: It's possible to downgrade the application if you have an older Battle.net.XXXXX directory in drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Battle.net/, but this won't work if you have to login, as the app will update and force you to restart before you have a chance to enter your credentials.
From the linked reddit discussion, the issue is worked-around downstream with a hack (by Paul Gofman) from Valve/Proton: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/wine/commit/98bce52ddf46c0c8c6be57c27d4aa9c...
Wine-GE is based on Proton, which is based on wine-staging. wine-staging has a ntdll-WRITECOPY patchset, but enabling it doesn't help with the issue.
Regards.
