Wine Directory Hidden FIles

Post by Nitwit »

As stated in the title I am having trouble viewing hidden files in multiple programs, olleydbg and immunity debugger, I search the forums and saw that this was a common issue with wine last post back in 2008. I searched the bug community and the forums but couldn't find a fix. Any help would be appreciated

My Specs:
System: windows 10 Vmware fusion
VM: Ubuntu 18.04
Wine version: wine-4.0.3
attached files: winectf

According to bug 32079 there is a workaround:
I tested SQLiteSpy and Wine's notepad. It is possible to see .dot files/directories, but the way to do it is not obvious:

Select File->Open
In the "Look in" dropdown box select "My Computer"
Select the (Z:) drive
Browse to wherever; you should be able to see the .dot files/directories.

The key is the second step; if you select / instead of My Computer from the dropdown list, .dot files/directories won't be displayed.

Ah yes i found this and forgot to mention it. While it works in some cases and is very useful it does not for some reason show all .dot hidden files, my main concern being the .wine folder as that is where i would be working.
