Copying the Windows Folder into Wine?

[Kingoftherings]

If I have a working install of Windows, could I copy the entire Windows Folder (C:\Windows) into Wine's Windows folder?

If I have all native dlls, will it improve compatibility and performance at all?

I understand the wine devs can't do this is they don't want to be sued, but for an end user like me, there shouldn't be a problem.

no it will break everything
You may have to copy new dll one by one and never write over a wine native dll

Not if you want Wine to actually work.

No, it will break Wine. Some native dlls require low-level Windows kernel access that Wine can't provide, and they should never be used. And even for the dlls that can be overridden, the native ones do not necessarily work better, and can even prevent some programs from working at all.

Sometimes native dlls are needed, but that should be done judiciously. First see if your app works with plain Wine, and if it doesn't, then figure out which native dlls might help and use only those.

Thanks you two.

I had to copy direct3D_9_30 and 36 (I think thats the right name) to get Trackmania Nations Forever to work, so I figured I might be able to do that with all dlls.
