backtrace.txt error report upon trying to launch one of the Pythonizer apps

I installed Monty Python's Complete Waste Of Time using the Windows 95  setting
in winecfg in Wine 8.0.2. It did so successfully and launched Pythonizer. I
clicked on Noisy Bits link and received an error report named backtrace.txt
which I saved and uploaded with this report.

I am on Linux Mint 21.1 (Ubuntu 22.04 Jammy) with Cinnamon x64 desktop
environment

Thank you for the win 16 tip. I searched it, found this;
https://superuser.com/questions/631035/16-bit-windows-under-win64-using-wine ,
enabled winxp in winetricks, tried to apply it to my setup.exe file in winecfg
from within winetricks (I don't know if it accomplished anything, I got the
same error message upon clicking on an app link in Pythonizer), and I have no
idea what to do next. May I ask you to elaborate? email me personally, if you'd
like

Pythonizer runs from the Start Menu shortcut in Wine on Linux Mint 21.1. You
launch winetricks in the terminal, follow the steps below. To install the 32
bit prefix for wine, perform the following BEFORE you install wine.

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 
sudo mkdir -pm755 /etc/apt/keyrings
sudo wget -O /etc/apt/keyrings/winehq-archive.key
https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/winehq.key
sudo wget -NP /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/dists/jammy/winehq-jammy.sources
WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine winecfg
sudo apt-get update -y;sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-stable

If you are running something other than Ubuntu Jammy or derivatives, change the
distro in the sources line to the one you need.

Launch winetricks in the terminal, Select the default wineprefix, change
settings, winxp.
Launch winecfg from within winetricks gui.

Navigate to your Python folder or mounted iso/setup.exe from within winecfg,
select Windows 95 for the environment, and click okay.

Navigate to your Monty Python setup.exe file, right click and Open with Wine
Windows Program Loader, and it should install.

When it asks you if you would like to open Pythonizer, select no, and instead
navigate to the Pythonizer link in Wine submenu of your Start Menu, and it
shoud launch.

CAVEAT: None of the links in Pythonizer will actually WORK in the manner
designed. They will execute, but for instance, the screensaver won't launch,
nor will the sounds work in NoisyBits. I am opening a new bug report for that.

Nothing was fixed in Wine, so FIXED isn't appropriate. I'm having a hard time
telling what you changed between your initial run and comment 2, though?

Thank you for the correction. I mistakenly tried to indicate that the PROBLEM
was fixed, not to say that the bug was.

As far as what happened, that caused me to mark the issue resolved, I simply
exceuted the link in the Start/Wine submenu in further testing.

How were you launching it the first time?

I launched it through the app when it opened following installation in winecfg.
That's when I got the backtrace error that I uploaded

Sorry, I'm confused, you launched it through winecfg? winecfg doesn't launch
programs...

I'm guessing what you mean is, the installer has some sort of "Run the program
now" option at the end, and that crashed? I'd expect that to work, so this
sounds like a valid Wine bug if that's the case.

Yes, now that I look back, I think that's exactly what happened after I
installed it. My mistake. I've been trying to make this work for awhile and the
details get a little fuzzy.

After you define the environment in winecfg and click on the setup.exe file, it
asks you if you want to Run Pythonizer, Return To Windows and other options. I
am uploading a photo.

If you select "Run Pythonizer," it launches the app, which crashes and Wine
Debugger opens and gives you the winevdm error if you click on a link within
the Pythonizer window.

I'm uploading a photo of those as well.

Needless to say, I just re-ran the setup to get these screenshots.
