[Bug 41312] New: Regedit on a 64 bit machine only displays the Wow6432Node structure

Bug ID: 41312
           Summary: Regedit on a 64 bit machine only displays the
                    Wow6432Node structure
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.9.18
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: registry
          Assignee: [e-mail]
          Reporter: [e-mail]

Regedit on a Wine 64 bit machine behaves differently compared to Windows 64
bit. Comparing the Regedit view on Wine of a 32 bit vs. Wine on a 64 bit
machine is different and confusing.

On a 64 bit machine Regedit only displays the Wow6432Node content in the
regular HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE structure. This is confusing because Windows 64 bit
displays the regular setup (that is related to 64 bit installation) and
Wow6432Node separately. To view the non-32 bit structure in Wine related to
KEY_WOW64_64KEY the system.reg needs to be manually accessed by an editor. The
recommendation for Regedit is to display the same structure as on Windows 64.

You need to run the 64-bit regedit to see the 64-bit side ("wine64 regedit"). I
believe the behavior is the same on Windows.

BIG THANKS.
Yes, exactly. 41312 can be closed. May be at least 41312 helps others, too. :-)
