InstallShield hangs #1245

Open mrjoey98 opened 1 year ago

mrjoey98 commented 1 year ago

Not sure if this is a winevdm issue or if there's some issue with a recent Windows update, but many InstallShield setup programs that run through otvdm hang in the middle of initializing and never fully start. For instance, it might stay at 0 or go up to 77% and then stay there. I'm using the most recent version of otvdm.

Do you get an elevation prompt? Also see https://github.com/otya128/winevdm/issues/226 .

I do get an elevation prompt and after that is when the progress bar freezes. This is what I see in the console window until the program eventually crashes. 1a00:fixme:module:LoadModule_wine_implementation 1334: Strange error set by CreateProcess: 740 (The following line repeats over and over) 2f9c:err:file:RedirectDriveRoot 168: c:\stopthis.now => C:\OTVDM-~1\c\stopthis.now

Just like #226, actually.
