WhatChanged doesn't lack in registry department this are the relevant changed keys: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\DSS] and [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\CD Projekt Red] as for the files: Activate.exe, Launcher.exe, Register.exe, debugdata.log (also readme_language.rtf) in bin folder: curllib.dll, libeay32.dll, libsasl.dll, openldap.dll, ssleay32.dll, witcher2.exe there bin some new files in Launcher folder also in C:\users\...\witcher2_Data_DFE and in My Documents\Witcher2\Config and Downloads you should copy those to your home/username/Witcher 2 that's probably all. uxtheme in Wine has the same purpose as in Windows XP (let's you change theme of Wine) and I know waht the shell32 is. I remember that changing those files was the only way to change Windows XP look and it was so painfull.
