QC crash dump

I have been playing Quake Champions in Wine with no problems for the past few
months but unfortunately there was a patch released in December that broke
compatibility.

If you open the game, a black window opens and just before the intro would
start to play the game crashes back to desktop. This issue is/was present for a
large number of real windows 7 users as well.

A solution was posted on the Quake Champions forum which has fixed the problem
for %95 of the community.

1. Make sure that Win 7 SP1 is installed
2. Install the following (specific) windows update:

Does anyone know what this update does, Is there anyway to install it on Wine?

There is no useful debug information as it crashes silently but I have attached
a crashdump.dmp file. I am unsure if the format is propitiatory or not.

I have tested both 2.21 and 2.21 staging as both were working fine before the
patch.

The following link contains an image of a decoded crash dump:

The general consensus is that it is something related to game overlays as the
issue has been linked to plays.tv and a number of graphics card software
overlays
