Hello folks,

as the summary says.

Prerequisite: 'winetricks -q dotnet40'

On startup the app displays a message box, stating:

"The directory name C:\\users\\focht\\Application
Data\\Microsoft\\Windows\\Themes\\ is invalid."

It's not serious because you can dismiss the dialog and the app continues to
load.

It seems the folder is present by default within user profile:

You can work around by creating the directory:

Data\\Microsoft\\Windows\\Themes"
