Hi Dan, I hope you have your problem solved by now. In case you haven't, you might try the following. Check to see that it didn't actually work first. You should have a fairly large system.reg and user.reg in ~/.wine (on the order of 5Mb and 1Mb, respectively) -- my userdef.reg has always been quite small. If the files are not there, are very small, or if you get back an error when you try to run something that the registry is not correct, I've found the following to always work. When adding the registry (using regedit winedefault.reg), change "SaveOnlyUpdatedKeys" = "Y" to "N" in ~/.wine/config with a Linux text editor. After running regedit (and it may still give an error message), you need to change "SaveOnlyUpdatedKeys" back to "Y". I've found that ensures that regedit will install winedefault.reg correctly every time. You don't need to be root to do it. deedee Date: Fri, 29 Aug 2003 09:12:08 -0700 From: Dan Sawyer To: "puoti@inwind.it" CC: wine-users Subject: Re: where does regedit want to put the registry file? All, wine regedit winedefault.reg results in the error message: cannot import winedefault.reg file is not a registry script What does this mean? What is the proper procedure to setup system.reg?
