Hello folks,

Windows XP resulted in a crash, Windows 10 resulted in the previous bug

I still don't get it. Why are you complaining about 'Windows XP' here?
Since some time ago, newly created WINEPREFIXes have 'Windows 7' setting by
default. 

If you are recycling an old WINEPREFIX with 'Windows XP' setting and expecting
the game to run then you obviously didn't get the message.
Blizzard officially stated that Windows XP is a no longer unsupported OS (EOL)
and there are many forums posts/announcements about this change.
They even implemented several measures, showing warnings, preventing launchers
to run etc.

Everything else is already covered by other bug reports.

-> INVALID

Regards
