As a workaround, you can install vcrun2022, which does not alter the prefix Windows version. Verb vcrun2022 includes the Visual C++ Redistributable Runtimes from 2015 to 2022.
In Winetricks, can the verbs vcrun2015, vcrun2017, and vcrun2019 be removed while keeping only vcrun2022? Or are these verbs retained for compatibility reasons?
By default, Wine sets a prefix's Windows version to be Windows 10. Executing load_vcrun2019 correctly gets the current Windows version from winecfg, and stores it in variable
w_store_winver
. The issue occurs after load_ucrtbase2019 runs, when it completesvariable w_restore_winver
executes, it sets the prefix version to Windows 7 instead of the version set in variablew_store_winver
.Example (winetricks 20240105-next):
w_store_winver
= win10 butvariable w_restore_winver
sets it to win7.
