Hello JB,

I can't reproduce this with Wine 1.7.45 in a clean WINEPREFIX.

https://bugs.wine-staging.com/show_bug.cgi?id=411

Unlikely a staging bug.

A run with 'BITROCKDEBUG=1' environment variable set should give more details.

Looking at the trace log in staging bug tracker it seems you have an unusal
mountpoint/symbolic link setup.
The app traverses from the root directory (drive 'Z:') and finds the payload
(itself) again but now in seemingly entirely different path which confuses it
(Tcl virtual filesystem).

"Z:/home/backes/Desktop/DL/ElsterFormular-16.1.20150424p.exe/<vfs>"

vs.

"Z:/disk2/home/backes/Downloads//ElsterFormular-16.1.20150424p.exe/<vfs>"

(find -> sort order!)

I wouldn't be surprised if there were more apps/games/installers not working in
the past due to your broken setup.

Anyway, resolving 'invalid' here.

$ sha1sum ElsterFormular-16.1.20150424p.exe 
cd903affaac75a25120f66a923b63c6b4567c3fd  ElsterFormular-16.1.20150424p.exe

$ du -sh ElsterFormular-16.1.20150424p.exe 
101M    ElsterFormular-16.1.20150424p.exe

$ wine --version
wine-1.7.45-195-gda5151f
