Bug ID: 55399
           Summary: .NET 4.8 application cannot download (by browser
                    launch) from the Internet
           Product: Wine
           Version: 8.12
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED

Screenshot of stack trace in error dialog
I am trying to use an application called GenuTax
(https://www.genutax.ca/Home/Download) with .NET 4.8 and Wine 8.12.
Once I created a 32-bit prefix and installed .NET 4.8 with winetricks the
application installs and runs successfully.  I was optimistic at this point.
At some point though the application wants to launch a browser to a certain URL
to log into an information portal.  At that point it fails with a
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException.
I have attached a screenshot (sorry for a screenshot, but I was unable to copy
the text from the dialog to be able to paste here).
There is a working iexplore.exe in this installation, so there should be a
browser for .NET to use.
