File picker versions

Post by cstrickland »

Hey all, so according to this post you can get a more fleshed out file picker dialog if you set your windows version to windows XP, problem is this is a very old windows version and causes issues when i try to run B4J
I don't understand why it cant be the better file picker in the windows 10 or later versions? is there no way to set this independently of the wine windows version set? perhaps in the registry or something?
For example, here is the file picker when windows version is set to XP:

And here it is when set to windows 10:

The biggest thing missing is I am unable to make new folders with this windows 10 one, and no addressbar is a bit frustrating :(
If there's any way to make the windows 10 one like the xp one I'd love to know thanks! Even if someone could direct me to where in the code this is defined I could try making myself a custom patch.
