Bug ID: 40035 Summary: VMware shared folders network provider fails loading in MPR Product: Wine Version: unspecified Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: pierre@reactos.org Distribution: ---
On VMware Workstation 12, VMware Shared Folders come with a network provider, vmhgfs.dll. But during registration, instead of using REG_SZ as Wine expects, it uses REG_EXPAND_SZ with %SystemRoot%. And thus, it fails to load.
I'll submit a patch to Wine for fixing it, watch http://source.winehq.org/patches/
