A while back there was a bug reported because certain installers looked in the registry for the path to the programs menu, and when they couldnt find it, they would abort the install. http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2765 The bug was closed once a patch was committed.. Seems that now, wineprefixcreate has the same issue, and since we are using that to setup the wine environment instead of wine itself, it is causing the same problem. This should be trivial, but it is annoying having to manually add something that should be in the registry by default anyways.. I reopened the bug for now since it is an issue again and people were posting to it.

I'm not having a problem with wineprefixcreate. I think there is something specific to his system that is preventing the key from being created.
