Bug #: 31953 Summary: regedit crashes when renaming the HKEY_XXX keys Product: Wine Version: 1.5.15 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: programs AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: fgouget@codeweavers.com Classification: Unclassified
Created attachment 42101 --> http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=42101 Shows the duplicated HKEY_USERS key
It should not be possible to rename these keys, and indeed a right-click on them shows that the 'Rename' menu is disabled. But a triple-click on HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE or HKEY_USERS still puts them in edit mode. Then clicking away from the key causes regedit to crash:
wine: Unhandled stack overflow at address 0x7bc6739e (thread 0009), starting debugger... err:seh:setup_exception_record stack overflow 816 bytes in thread 0009 eip 7bc49290 esp 00231000 stack 0x230000-0x231000-0x330000
What appears to happen is that the key is copied into itself again and again until the stack overflow. As a result a second try gives a 'File exists' error instead.
