It looks like it may also need vcrun2005:
$ wget http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks
$ sh winetricks vcrun2005

Try:
$ mv ~/.wine ~/.wine.bak
Then reinstall. If it works, we know it's fixed in 0.9.59, otherwise, still
valid.

Again, you can try backing up your old .wine and reinstalling. Otherwise, two
options:
A) Run $ wineprefixcreate
This should update your ~/.wine with any new dlls/registry entries/etc that are
missing. If it doesn't work, and reinstalling fresh does work, please file a
bug, as we're trying to identify any bugs in wineprefixcreate.
B) Reinstall Watchtower in it's own prefix. That would allow you to keep your
old apps and their settings, and run Watchtower in its own 'sandbox' if you
will.
$ WINEPREFIX=~/.watchtower wine watchtower_setup.exe

No problem.

That's fine, but any help you can provide with debugging and testing will help
make wine better for you and everyone else.
