Wine issues: `mismatched architecture` and `unhandled page fault`

KnightOfCups commented 2 years ago

Since I'm on Steam, I play the early Tomb Raider games by Core Design (from I to VI) and, despite some temporary issues, I managed to get this working by using the different community versions available of Proton (from here, -Exp or -GE). Now it seems that few Wine installations have been altered but I still can play the other games.

For TB II & V, registry files are invalid (tb2.log tb5.log)
```
...
system.reg is not a valid registry file
userdef.reg:4: Mismatched architecture '#arch=win64'
userdef.reg is not a valid registry file
user.reg is not a valid registry file
...
```
Protontricks crashes after complaining about the WINEPREFIX: You are using a 64-bit WINEPREFIX. Note that many verbs only install 32-bit versions of packages. If you encounter problems, please retest in a clean 32-bit WINEPREFIX before reporting a bug.

For TB III, wine crashes (tb3.log)

...
wine: Unhandled page fault on read access to 6D452064 at address 6D452064 (thread 0118), starting debugger...
...
Unhandled exception: page fault on read access to 0x6d452064 in 32-bit code (0x6d452064).

I tried resetting Steam with --reset option and uninstalling/reinstalling the Proton builds but the Wine issues remain.

Finally I succeed to launch TB III with current Proton-GE 6.21-GE-2-1 version but not with the latest Proton-Exp 6.3-20211220 version (same issue). The switch to the previous Proton builds for the 2 unworkable games just confirm the diagnostic with a clear message: wine: '.../.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/225300/pfx' is a 32-bit installation, it cannot support 64-bit applications.

Finally I ended up by uninstalling and reinstalling the 2 games, the Wine configurations are now valid and everything is back to normal.

So I guess the prefixes got broken (IIRC Steam wipes the prefix when uninstalling a game). Now I wonder how exactly they got broken.
