--- Comment #2 from Anastasius Focht <focht at gmx.net> ---
Hello folks,

confirming, still present.

It's a dupe of bug 41713 ("Initial 'explorer' process fails to register/run
ShellWindows class local COM server in new WINEPREFIX due to incomplete
registry data").

The part that fails is the FACEIT Desktop client (sub)installer which is
bundled with the FACEIT Anti-Cheat installer.

Stable download link to Desktop client via Internet Archive:

https://web.archive.org/web/20180607223749/https://faceit-client.faceit.com/release/FACEIT-setup-latest.exe

$ sha1sum FACEIT-setup-latest.exe 
bdef769754e12515bde117e1b8ac8ce0eb53ece7  FACEIT-setup-latest.exe

$ du -sh FACEIT-setup-latest.exe 
56M    FACEIT-setup-latest.exe

The FACEIT Desktop client installer is UAC aware and tries to re-launch the
installer using if it detects admin token (bug 40613). It uses
'{9BA05972-F6A8-11CF-A442-00A0C90A8F39}' -> ShellWindows -> WindowsShell.Item
-> Document.Application.ShellExecute for de-elevation.

$ sha1sum FACEITInstaller_64.exe 
510cc07d3605a87412c83a2514196c602d9ff5fe  FACEITInstaller_64.exe

$ du -sh FACEITInstaller_64.exe 
86M    FACEITInstaller_64.exe

$ wine --version
wine-6.4-86-g4d5824112e1
