Summary: Can't export virtual desktop registry settings
Product: Wine
Version: 1.1.15
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Keywords: download, source
Severity: minor
Priority: P2
Component: -unknown
AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org

Noticed a weird bug when setting up daily winetest. I wanted to test in a
virtual desktop, but using:
wine explorer /desktop=name,1024x768 program.exe
is impractical for obvious reasons. So I decided to use the registry key in the
registry. I enabled it in winecfg and used regedit to export the key, then the
same to import it each time. Regedit's .reg file is:
-------
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Explorer]
"Desktop"="Default"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Explorer\Desktops]
"Default"="800x600"
-------
looks fine. But importing that fails. Curious, I ran diff on the .wine and
found that apparently regedit isn't exporting the full key:
-------
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Explorer]
"Desktop"="Default"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Explorer\Desktops] 1234567890
"Default"="800x600"
-------
Notice the timestamp. I suppose it's a regedit bug, but do we actually need
that timestamp? Looking at the diff more, seems it's also used in:
+[Software\\Wine\\Fonts] 1235641812
-[Software\\Wine\\Fonts\\External Fonts] 1235641855
+[Software\\Wine\\Fonts\\External Fonts] 1235641812
Does that really need to change each time winecfg is ran?
Importing the registry key allows the virtual desktop to work fine.
