Bug ID: 51832 Summary: Fork: "The selection contains a non-folder object" when selecting a folder Product: Wine Version: 6.18 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: comdlg32 Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: jleegippies@gmail.com Distribution: ---
Created attachment 70722 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=70722 Terminal output when selecting a folder
In Fork, when going to "File > Open a Repository..." (or any of the options that require selecting a folder) and selecting a folder in the file explorer and clicking, "Open", the following error pops up: "The selection contains a non-folder object". I've tried selecting folders in both C: and Z: with no luck.
I've added the terminal output during the time I select a folder, but nothing prints out right when I do it, so I don't think it's particularly helpful.
My OS is Linux Mint 20.2 Cinnamon
Steps to reproduce:
1. You can use either wine-6.18 or wine-6.0.1, the issue occurs in both 2. Setup a 64-bit wine prefix (Fork crashes on install in a 32 bit prefix, at least as far as I've tried) 3. Make sure to have dotnet462, dxvk155, and d3dcompiler_47 installed (I used Winetricks to install). 4. Download Fork (https://git-fork.com/) and install (in the prefix you just created) 5. If the windows come up black, add the following registry key to disable hardware acceleration:
wine reg add "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Avalon.Graphics" /v DisableHWAcceleration /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
6. Set a name and email (this would be used if you were committing/pushing stuff with Fork). 7. Make a test directory: "mkdir MyTestDir" and "touch MyTestDir/stuff.txt" 8. Then in Fork go to "File > Init New Repository..." and navigate to your test directory.
Normally, Fork would initialize a git repository in your test directory, but instead it currently throws the error: "The selection contains a non-folder object".
