Legacy installer of Origin (Digital Distribution Platform) from
https://origin-a.akamaihd.net/Origin-Client-Download/origin/legacy/OriginThi...
won't open on winvista+ environment.

# To reproduce
- Download
https://origin-a.akamaihd.net/Origin-Client-Download/origin/legacy/OriginThi...
- Execute with wine <4.16 in winvista+ environment
- Expect failure like 'wine_output.txt'

# Workaround
Workaround is to use winxp environment for the installation and then switch to
default environment with overwrites alike:

```bash
# Set environment on winxp for required apps
  ## Using winvista is mandatory
https://github.com/Winetricks/winetricks/pull/1318#issuecomment-531562386
  if [ "$(uname)" = 'FreeBSD' ]; then w_set_app_winver 'Origin.exe' 'winxp';
else w_set_app_winver 'Origin.exe' 'winvista' ; fi
  w_set_app_winver 'OriginClientService.exe' 'winxp'
  w_set_app_winver 'Setup.exe' 'winvista'
  w_set_app_winver 'UpdateTool.exe' 'winvista'
  w_set_app_winver 'OriginUninstall.exe' 'winvista'
  w_set_app_winver 'OriginCrashReporter.exe' 'winvista'
  w_set_app_winver 'OriginClient.exe' 'winvista'
  w_set_app_winver 'IGOProxy.exe' 'winvista'
  w_set_app_winver 'IGOProxy64.exe' 'winvista'
  w_set_app_winver 'OriginFR.exe' 'winvista'
  w_set_app_winver 'GetGameToken32.exe' 'winvista'
  w_set_app_winver 'GetGameToken64.exe' 'winvista'
  w_set_app_winver 'EAProxyInstaller.exe' 'winvista'

# winxp is required for the installation
  w_set_winver 'winxp'

w_warn "You should *uncheck* sharing hardware info"

# Installer
  w_try "$WINE" "${W_CACHE}/origin/OriginThinSetup.exe"

# Switch back to default environment
  w_unset_winver
```

Origin sugguested that only use legacy installer on winxp or vista:
"For Windows XP or Vista, click here to download."
(https://www.origin.com/usa/en-us/store/download)

And they have another installer for win7+:
https://origin-a.akamaihd.net/Origin-Client-Download/origin/live/OriginThinS...

So this maybe expected instead of an issue of Wine.
Anyway, it will be worth testing it on win7 to see what will happen.

Notice that this is the same installer as presented in the issue.

It seems that the old installer got updated by EA so this issue is no longer
present and i am unable to reproduce it. -> Closing as Fixed
