Hi,

This was reported on the forum: 
https://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?p=145869#p145869

If you put a hack to return TRUE for VerifyVersionInfoW then it goes further.

The failing call seems to be:

trace:ver:VerifyVersionInfoW (00007FFFFE1FFD24 0x33 0x1b01b)

which seems to fail

possible fix

This pne-liner patch is enough to workaround this bug for now.

As GetVersionEx seems to be unreliable for higher winversions according to MS
and tests, maybe this is a possible correct fix?

No, the returned version is determined from the manifest. The problem is that
the manifest fails to load because we don't support language-specific
assemblies.
