You can do that by setting the EnableShell variable, cf. https://wiki.winehq.org/Useful_Registry_Keys
Couldn't get that working. (wine-staging-4.11)
Setting the DWORD HKCU\Software\Wine\Explorer\Desktops\EnableShell to 0x1 had no effect.
Setting the String HKCU\Software\Wine\Explorer\Desktop to "shell" started wine without virtual desktop.
Otherwise you can also launch the special shell desktop with explorer /desktop=shell.
Works! Thanks!
But I have to manually specify the resolution. E.g.: wine explorer /desktop=shell,1920x1080 It won't automatically use the resolution set via winecfg.
And I have to start all programs with: wine explorer /desktop=shell,1920x1080 program.exe If I just run wine program.exe the program will appear on a second virtual desktop without taskbar.
