Summary: Internet Explorer 2.0 (Win95) fails to install Product: Wine Version: 1.0.1 Platform: PC URL: http://www.oldversion.com/download/msie20.exe OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Keywords: download, Installer, win16 Severity: minor Priority: P3 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: kennybobs@o2.co.uk

Internet Explorer 2.0 for Windows 95 fails to install with an INST32.DLL error: "ThunkConnect32 Failure!!"

This is followed by a second dialog stating: "A required DLL or function entry point in a required DLL is missing."

The entire console output is: err:thunk:_loadthunk (INST16.DLL, instthk_ThunkData16, INST32.DLL): Unable to load 'INST16.DLL', error 2

Wine has to be set to Win95 mode to install.

Workaround is manual extraction.

Same in latest git.

The problem is that INST16.DLL is missing in wine.

No it isn't. inst16.dll is provided by the installer.

--- Comment #9 from Anastasius Focht focht@gmx.net --- Hello folks,

confirming.

The bootstrapper unpacks everything in temp directory and starts the real installer 'infinst.exe' from that location.

The directory from which the application loaded must be taken into account for dll search path (NOTE: executable load path != current working directory here).

As already mentioned in OP's report you can work around by unpacking the first stage. This allows the loader to pick up the thunk dll from current working directory.

('unknown' path element is another bug):

IE 2.0 works surprisingly well - beware of websites with heavy client-side javascript though.
