Installs perfectly but needs Windows Event log running to run main application.

This is much like Metastock 9 and those before it BUT with the introduction of V10, the Application required [as far as i can tell] the Windows event log to run successfully in Wine/Crossover.
Installation is fine once all dependencies are installed - plus a few others to make everything work however when MsWin.exe is run - only the icon is displayed and no application opens.

Task manager shows MsWin.exe running as well as astsrv.exe.

Note all other included apps such as The_downloader.exe are OK

astsrv.exe needs the Windows event log to be running

What needs to happen [I think] is to modify Wine to get an Windows event log working.

It has been suggested this can be done at the wine source code level [creating a event log] but for now - we must wait until this interests others..

Looking forward to a solution 😊
