            Bug ID: 50873
           Summary: reg.exe ignores /f parameter
           Product: Wine
           Version: 6.5
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: programs
          Assignee: wine-bugs at winehq.org
          Reporter: mywine at schiermeier-it.de
      Distribution: ---

I tried:

wine reg.exe add 'HKCU\Software\Wine\DllOverrides' /v 'winemenubuilder.exe' /t
REG_SZ /d '' /f

to disable "winemenubuilder.exe'. But when I run the command above I got this
question:

The registry value 'winemenubuilder.exe' already exists. Do you want to
overwrite it? (Yes|No)

But according to reg.exe's help:
 /f
     Modify the registry without prompting for confirmation.

this question should not happen. I suspect reg.exe to do a mistake.

Also the content of the writen registry key is wrong:

[Software\\Wow6432Node\\Wine\\DllOverrides] 1616887989
#time=1d723618c0b1168
"winemenubuilder.exe"="/f"

Correct would be for the last line:
"winemenubuilder.exe"=""
