--- Comment #4 from sworddragon2 at aol.com ---
I wasn't able to successfully install/enable an english language pack. But I
have found an alternative way to test this issue because the question here is
what basically happens if
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\Regedit\LastKey
points to a non-existent registry key. To test this I have opened regedit in
Windows XP, selected any random key, closed regedit and imported the following
file:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\Regedit]
"LastKey"="test"


After starting regedit again the root key was selected. If I'm opening regedit
with Wine, selecting any random key, closing regedit, manually setting
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\Regedit\LastKey
in ~/.wine/userdef.reg to "test" and then starting regedit again the first
child key of the root key is selected.

So this issue is about that Windows XP's regedit does default to the root key
while Wine's regedit does default to the first child key of the root key.
