Bug #: 32886 Summary: Inconsistent registry keys Product: Wine Version: 1.5.22 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: sworddragon2@aol.com Classification: Unclassified
There are cases in which Wine does create Windows XP registry keys but is showing Windows 7 in winecfg. Here is a way to reproduce this:
Create a new profile with a manually created system.reg with the following content:
WINE REGISTRY Version 2
#arch=win64
[Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion] "CSDVersion"="Service Pack 1" "CurrentBuildNumber"="7601" "CurrentVersion"="6.1" "ProductName"="Microsoft Windows 7"
[System\CurrentControlSet\Control\ProductOptions] "ProductType"="WinNT"
If winecfg is started the first time it will configure the rest of the registry keys. But although winecfg is now showing Windows 7 [Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion] and [System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Windows] have got Windows XP entries. To be precise a diff looks like this:

The defect is in the logic that manually creates system.reg.

If Wine can't handle this then the code is unstable there. One part of Wine does Windows 7 actions and another part Windows XP actions. If you don't accept this as a bug see it as a feature request.

There is nothing to fix on Wine side, fix your code that creates broken registry.

Well, the code can be enhanced there. Just let this ticket open because maybe somebody want to do this in the future. It is an advantage-only feature request from which some users can benefit :)

Are you maybe working for CodeWeavers that you dislike such tickets that could > hurt the reputation of Wine?
