           Summary: Window rendering completely breaks after interacting
                    with the “Desktop Integration” section of winecfg with

Changes in HKCU registry

# Background & Steps to reproduce

Window rendering will show bizare artifacts, up to becoming totally useless
(tiny transparent window frames that cannot be interacted with), after
following the below steps:

1. In WINE staging enable GTK3 themeing
 2. Open `winecfg` again (things should be themed now)
 3. Select the “desktop integration” tab
 4. Change the “theme” from “GTK-3” to “(No Theme)” and click “Apply”
 5. Do the above two times for noticable rendering issues and crashes
 6. Do the above three (or more) times to break *any window rendering in WINE*
(see attachment 2)

# Underlying issue

I'm not exactly sure what `winecfg` happens to do here, but it somehow manages
to calculate and store some completely wrong values for several entries inside
the

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetrics

registry key (see attachment 1) that then result in this behaviour.

# Workaround

Open `${WINEPREFIX}/user.reg` in a text editor and delete the entire

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetrics

registry key section before launching WINE again.

We found the same bug with the Registry settings

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetrics

+"SmCaptionHeight"="-105"
+"SmCaptionWidth"="-11390625"

w/o GTK3 theming. The bug happens when simply any "Desktop-Integration" valued
is changed and the new settings are applied.

Our apps do not work at all anymore because they use those consistent Regitry
data. This bug is a real nasty one.

However, the issue happens with Wine-2.0, Wine-2.21. But it looks that with
Wine-3.13 on Ubuntu this bug does not happend anymore.

I recommend to verify if the issue is resoved on Wine-3.13 and then close this
bug report or if it appears to be open still change the status to NEW.
