Legacy installer of Origin (Digital Distribution Platform) from
https://origin-a.akamaihd.net/Origin-Client-Download/origin/legacy/OriginThinSetup.exe
won't open on winvista+ environment.



# To reproduce
- Download
https://origin-a.akamaihd.net/Origin-Client-Download/origin/legacy/OriginThinSetup.exe
- Execute with wine <4.16 in winvista+ environment
- Expect failure like 'wine_output.txt'



# Workaround
Workaround is to use winxp environment for the installation and then switch to
default environment with overwrites alike:

```bash
# Set environment on winxp for required apps
  ## Using winvista is mandatory

  if [ "$(uname)" = 'FreeBSD' ]; then w_set_app_winver 'Origin.exe' 'winxp';
else w_set_app_winver 'Origin.exe' 'winvista' ; fi
  w_set_app_winver 'OriginClientService.exe' 'winxp'
  w_set_app_winver 'Setup.exe' 'winvista'
  w_set_app_winver 'UpdateTool.exe' 'winvista'
  w_set_app_winver 'OriginUninstall.exe' 'winvista'
  w_set_app_winver 'OriginCrashReporter.exe' 'winvista'
  w_set_app_winver 'OriginClient.exe' 'winvista'
  w_set_app_winver 'IGOProxy.exe' 'winvista'
  w_set_app_winver 'IGOProxy64.exe' 'winvista'
  w_set_app_winver 'OriginFR.exe' 'winvista'
  w_set_app_winver 'GetGameToken32.exe' 'winvista'
  w_set_app_winver 'GetGameToken64.exe' 'winvista'
  w_set_app_winver 'EAProxyInstaller.exe' 'winvista'

  # winxp is required for the installation
  w_set_winver 'winxp'

  w_warn "You should *uncheck* sharing hardware info"

  # Installer
  w_try "$WINE" "${W_CACHE}/origin/OriginThinSetup.exe"

  # Switch back to default environment
  w_unset_winver
```
