Hello,

Looking at the source code for actctx and judging from the
size of the other activation context functions, I'm going to assume it should
be a moderately easy fix?
--- quote ---

I'd like to see a Wine implementation of FindActCtxSectionGuid() ->
RtlFindActivationContextSectionGuid() too. 
I'm currently investigating/tracking some .NET bugs that can be partially made
to work by resorting to native ole32, specifically COM context management
(inter-thread marshalling of COM proxies, passing direct object references
across apartments, context callbacks).
Unfortunately a working implementation of FindActCtxSectionGuid() is needed as
prerequisite or it will bail early.
Mostly the app will yield some message like this before failure:

--- snip ---
...
0015:fixme:actctx:FindActCtxSectionGuid 00000001 (null) 4
{xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx} 0x32e7b8
...
--- snip ---

If managed (.NET) mostly followed by following exception:

--- snip ---
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80070078): Retrieving the COM
class factory for component with CLSID {xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx}
failed due to the following error: 80070078.
--- snip ---

There are other bugs that might benefit from it - though they all seem to
indicate native ole32 override.
I'm not aware of a sample app that makes direct use of FindActCtxSectionGuid().

Regards
