If this app relies on Windows regedit to examine the registry, it's never going to work in Wine. Wine's regedit is designed to work with Wine's registry, which is stored as a plain text file. It cannot read or write the Windows binary format, and pointing an app running in Wine at a real Windows registry is an extremely bad idea.
