Error when trying to run winecfg or open any Wine application

Post by ASOwnerYT »

Hello, when I run winecfg in the terminal, I get this error:

Code: Select all

002c:err:wineboot:process_run_key Error running cmd L"C:\\windows\\system32\\winemenubuilder.exe -a -r" (2).

wine: could not load kernel32.dll, status c0000135
And all Wine applications just don't open.
I have no idea what this means, and it was working fine before, so how do I fix this? Thanks

I assume this is with 6.7? You probably want to file a bug. Also can you check if creating a 32-bit prefix works?

Yes this is with 6.7 (the latest version from Arch Linux repositories). And I tried setting a 32-bit prefix and deleting the ~/.wine folder, and this is the result:

What I typed:

Code: Select all

export WINEARCH=win32
winecfg
Output:

Code: Select all

wine: created the configuration directory '/home/asowneryt/.wine'

I see a bug was reported: https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51086

To be clear was a wine upgrade where the problem started? If you are able to install 6.6 or some previous version and have things work that would be useful information.
