Wine 1.7.4 lost all Windows compatibility options below XP

Post by Agent24 »

As the title describes.

I had Wine 1.6 installed from PPA on Xubuntu 12.04 LTS.

I decided to upgrade to Wine 1.7.4

After this, looking in the Wine Configuration options under Applications \ Windows Version, the options only go from Windows 8 to Windows XP. Windows 2000, 98, 95 etc are not there.

I don't know if this is a bug, a feature or what as I was unable to find any documentation to explain it. Hopefully someone here can enlighten me!

Sounds like a 64 bit wineprefix. Create a 32 bit wineprefix and you will see all the older versions listed in winecfg.
