Description of the Issue I tested "painkiller black" game. It was launched first time but it didn't work then after. The showing error is "vulkan:X11DRV_vulkan_surface_create Application requires child window rendering, which is not implemented yet!"

I don't know it's related to winlator or wine but I found the workaround.

I launched any gog installer but I didn't install that game then I launched painkiller black main exe and game ran without any error. So problem is game exe couldn't make child window rendering but after after running a gog installer it worked properly.

Here is my video of workaround.

I tested with vc redist installer and painkiller launched successfully. Didn't close vc redist window.

I think @longjunyu2 can patch Wfm with child window rendering patch so game will be launched without any problem.

Yes, I opened many apps from wine such winecfg, Run , winefile etc but not fixed.

It's fixed when I opened vc redist ,Gog installer and Explorer++.exe

Also It's not related to keyboard input.

Well I am not expert in coding so I can't find the cause. I am a simple modder with some experience who add simple stuff to winlator.

Don't worry.
