Hi,

I'm trying to run a program with wine but without success.

Code:
~ WINEARCH=win64 wine64 Downloads/PathOfBuilding-Setup-1.4.73.exe
fixme:service:scmdatabase_autostart_services Auto-start service L"MountMgr" failed to start: 2
wine: Bad EXE format for Z:\home\wichtounet\Downloads\PathOfBuilding-Setup-1.4.73.exe.


This is with wine-vanilla (64 no-multilib). I tried with and without udisks USE flag, but with the same results. When I use winecfg, I can see the drives, but then when I run an application, there is an error with the mount manager. And then, in winecfg, the drives disappeared.

Any idea what's causing this issue ?

I've seen that I'm not the only one having this kind of issue, but I haven't found a solution in the existing threads.

I've only tried wine-vanilla, should I try vanilla-staging ?

Should I simply switch to a multilib installation ?

Thanks

Yes!!

A pure 64-bit Wine build is not officially supported by the Wine project. :cry:

If you look at any Windows installer, PE executable, with the readpe utility (pev package builds are in my Overlay ::bobwya)...
You'll find that even 64-bit Windows programs have 32-bit installers.

That's pretty sad :(

Thanks for the answer.

I won't bother with wine then.
