Bug ID: 58455 Summary: Word Pro loses path to a freshly opened file Product: Wine Version: 10.11 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: ToddAndMargo@zoho.com Distribution: ---
SmartSuite-N99.8.0208.0800 Fedora 42 wine-devel-10.11-1.1.x86_64
Also reproducible under Fedora 41 wine-10.4-2.fc41.x86_64 (Staging from the Fedora repo) wine-10.4-2.fc41.i686
[1] open an existing .lwp file in Word Pro [2] make a change [3] press the save icons of file→save [4] you will be prompted for “Save As” instead of “Save” This is because Word Pro lost the path to your file [5] navigate back to your file and press “save” Okay the overwrite warning [6] make another change to your file [7] now press save. This time it will work.
AND! this is not an issue under Fedroa 39 wine-9.1-1.fc39.i686 (staging from the Fedora repo)
This is a complete pain-in-the-neck.
Please fix.

Approach Smart Icons do not show https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=57828#c19
Also works for this issue.
I still have two WINEPREFIX's and a virtual machine for testing when this bug gets fixed.
