            Bug ID: 46023
           Summary: Cisco Packet Tracer 7.2 (kind of) crashes on startup
                    and when reading saved files from disk
           Product: Wine
           Version: 3.14
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Mac OS X
            Status: UNCONFIRMED

          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown

Created attachment 62600

app crashed. wineloader64 box popped up. gave me this crashlog/traceback. tell
me to save it and submit it to this page. so that's what i'm doing; following
the instructions it gave me. hope it helps.

Relevant to Wine and/or CrossOver.

trying to get cisco packet tracer working reliably on macos. but there's an
annoying error/dialog box at startup: "packet tracer has stopped working
unexpectedly blah blah". Here is a screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/HsyEKFq.png

but it has't actually stopped working. 
it works. 
for the most part, at least.

although actually interacting with the erroneous error/dialog box will in turn
terminate the application. 
i'm guessing it's expecting something from the windows environment, and when
it's not there, it throws an exception because some condition is not met. 

i can just move the dialog box out of the way and carry on in the meantime, but
it's still annoying.
i think it's to do with the login screen. 
on windows it bullies you into signing up and logging in. or you can enter as a
guest with a reduced feature set or something. but that isn't displayed in
Wine. it just goes straight into the main application. 
i just move the error/dialog box to another desktop, or stash it in the corner,
or behind the main window.

it was going fine for hours, then out of nowhere it crashed for real. but it
allowed me to save progress. i saved to the macOS desktop. I can execute the
application again and load the saved file, but after that, it will crash any
time i try to move objects around. so i got so far, but now i'm stuck.
